In his detailed review of Ghoomer, Harsha Bhogle lauded Abhishek Bachchan for his "outstanding performance." Bhogle said, "Then there was Abhishek Bachchan. I think he lives the role of the coach. I love the way Abhishek marred the two into his character. I could recognize a couple of cricketers within the character that Abhishek plays, but I'll leave it for you to decide. But needless to say, he is outstanding, especially in the first half.”
Take a look at what Harsha Bhogle had to say:
Ghoomer is directed by R Balki. It also stars Saiyami Kher, Shabana Azmi, and Angad Bedi.
