Mixed reviews:
The domestic audience would already wrap up discussion of the enthusiastic reviews but they complained more mixed signals in the overseas acceptance according to some labeling this tragic movie as an “aggressive drama” even a “disaster for watching”, attributing both to the speed and overaction of the film.
“Disappointing #HariHaraVeeraMallu. I think PK should hang his boots,” tweeted Umair Sandhu, the so-called critic.
Under the Buzz Behind The Rug
#HariHaraVerraMallu disappointed!#PawanKalyan will never come back !
He is not in serious mood to do films. He should retire from movies. Politics suits him.

The Director’s Take
Director Krish tweeted that the film is beyond just a story-it is a spirit-adding that Pawan Kalyan and producer AM Rathnam are the “legends” for having brought the entire vision to life.
Now… Hari Hara Veera Mallu walks into the world. Not quietly.. but with purpose.. with the weight of history and passion behind every frame. This journey was made possible by two great legends… not just in cinema, but in spirit..

Directed by Krish Jagarlamudi and A. M. Jyothi Krishna, the film is set against the backdrop of the Mughal Empire in the 17th century and the mission of Veera Mallu to steal the Koh-i-Noor diamond.
The ensemble cast includes Bobby Deol, Nidhhi Agerwal, Nargis Fakhri, and Sathyaraj, with action choreography by legends like Peter Hein and Nick Powell.
It is an open indication by itself that advances had crossed ₹12.5 crore globally giving it a strong opening at the box office.
