Malang opened to lukewarm reviews on Friday and in his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film two stars out of five. He wrote: "The film has style aplenty, but the core of the plot is built on devices that resemble facile contrivances rather than believable twists. As a result, despite the vim and vigour of the making, Malang is never more than middling."
Co-produced by Luv Ranjan, Bhushan Kumar, Ankur Garg and Krishan Kumar, Malang features Disha Patani and Aditya Roy Kapur as serial killers and Anil Kapoor as a cop.
