In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee said that Saif Ali Khan's performance was "rock solid." He gave Baazaar 2 stars and wrote, "It is at best passable. It could have yielded higher dividends had it been less slavishly derivative."

Baazaar, a stock market thriller, is the story of a shrewd businessman Shakun Kothari, played by Saif. He takes newcomer Rizwan Ahmed (Rohan Mehra) in his business and the story unfolds after that.

Rohan Mehra is the son of late actor Vinod Mehra and Baazaar is his debut Bollywood film.

Baazaar is directed by Gauravv K Chawla and the film also features Chitrangada Singh and Radhika Apte.
