Gabbar Is Back was much talked about ahead of its release mostly because of the historical context of the name and a lot was said about whether anyone can do justice to the role. However, Akshay Kumar cannily projected the movie as one whose message is of purely fighting corruption to align it with the current national scene. That particular niche was considered enough to set the film apart all by itself. (Bollywood Hungama)
