Review of the film :

This film reviews are mostly negative from critics.

Critics reviews :

  • Taran Adarsh from Bollywood Hungama gave 1 star from 5 star and stated that "DHUND - THE FOG does not have much to offer in terms of novelty. At the box-office, it has some chances at small centres.Amar Upadhyay is ordinary,Apoorva Agnihotri gets some scope to perform towards the finale. He is alright. Both Aditi Govitrikar and Divya Palat need to work on their acting skills. Irfan does well. Prem Chopra and Gulshan Grover are as usual. Tom Alter is wasted. Mukesh Tiwari doesn't get much scope. Shweta Menon is fair.Cinematography [Gangu Ramsay] is appropriate. Editing is loose."
  • Ronjita Kulkarni from rediff.com on film reviewing stating that "Agnihotri and Palat are largely unconvincing. Gulshan Grover and Prem Chopra are wasted.Undoubtedly, the best performer in the film is Irfan Khan. And the most wasted. Dhund is neither a thriller nor a chiller. It simply fogs your mind."
  • Shahid Khan from Planet Bollywood gave only 1.5 star from 10 star and writes that "Shyam Ramsay is mediocre and uninspired.This film is better off allowed to just disappear into the fog and be forgotten forever."
