An excerpt from Money Control's review of Raid 2 read as, "Ajay Devgn, as Amay, moves through the film with a near-blank expression that makes it hard to read what he's thinking or feeling. He does land a few good moments but mostly plays a muted version of his earlier role. Vaani Kapoor’s character adds little and could’ve been left out without consequence. Riteish Deshmukh has his moments, especially in scenes with his mother, which feel authentic and grounded. But when Amay begins to outwit him, that arc is glossed over instead of being explored."
