Despite a rating of 2 out of 5 by several film critics, the film has managed to interest moviegoers. Film critic Saibal Chatterjee in his review to NDTV wrote, "Baaghi 2 rattles shakily along a predictable path, stopping only when the titular renegade has fully lived up to the film's title."

Baaghi 2 is a remake of Telugu film Kshanam. Speaking about which Mr Chatterjee wrote in his review, "The director...lets it (the story) rip without letting the need for nuances get in the way of his style, which rests primarily on taking the plot of the 2016 Telugu actioner Kshanam and turning it into an exercise designed for Tiger doing his hyper-masculine number in the face of grave danger."

The Ahmed Khan-directed film hit the screens on March 29.
