Compliments kept pouring in for the actor's portrayal of Arjun Sarkar, with one post reading, 'Nani never disappoints. His characterisation has worked big time.'
Another user declared it 'Nani's career-best acting, with writing at its peak. Best title card in recent times for a Telugu actor.'

However, reactions weren't universally glowing. Some users noted that the film doesn't quite live up to the hype, particularly criticizing the investigation arc. One review read, 'Nani did a great job, the final act was intense, and the story idea was good. But the investigation felt routine, emotions were weak, and BGM was flat. Verdict: A decent thriller with some strong moments. Rating: 2.5/5.'

Another user was more scathing in their criticism, tweeting, '#Hit3 is an average movie with good cinematography and acting from Nani. It has borrowed a lot of things, didn't find anything unique or thrilling to be honest. Last 20 mins were the best portions; the rest had bad screenplay. Garbage love track. Barely any ounce of investigative thriller genre.'
The pacing of the film was another point of debate. While several users found the first half underwhelming, many agreed that the second half, especially the final act, delivered the intensity and momentum expected from the franchise.
Terrific 2nd Half 🔥
Last 30 mintues 👏👏👌👌
Bloodbath 🩸🩸🩸🩸

Despite the criticism, HIT: The Third Case has also been praised for its surprise cameos, which many fans described as a 'great surprise.' The film, clashing with Suriya's Retro at the box office, features Nani in a dark, gritty avatar as Arjun Sarkar, a cop driven by justice and personal demons. The story unfolds across layered backdrops and high-stakes action, with Srinidhi Shetty starring opposite Nani as the romantic lead.

Ashwin Kumar's Mahavatar Narsimha mints Rs 15.85 Cr in opening weekend: collections soared by over 400 % from Day 1
Ashwin Kumar's mythological action drama, Mahavatar Narsimha, has exceeded expectations after a modest opening. The film, rooted in Indian mythology, witnessed significant growth over the weekend, particularly in the Hindi-speaking region. Strong word-of-mouth and appreciation for its spiritual themes are driving its success, potentially making it a surprise hit despite limited pre-release buzz. Ashwin Kumar 's mythological action drama Mahavatar Narsimha opened in cinemas with measured expectations, but the film has shown a notable upward trend through its opening weekend. Rooted in ancient Indian mythology and centered around the fierce avatar of Vishnu who emerges to destroy the tyrant Hiranyakashyap, the film has managed to strike a chord, particularly in the Hindi-speaking belt. Directed by Ashwin Kumar with reverence for the source material and supported by strong visuals, Mahavatar Narsimha delves into the eternal battle between good and evil, a story familiar to many but rarely attempted with such scale and cinematic vision in modern Indian cinema. The screenplay by Ashwin Kumar , Jayapurna Das and Rudra Pratap Ghosh brings to life the poignant journey of Prahlad's unwavering devotion and the divine wrath of Narsimha, offering both emotional and action-packed beats. The film had a modest start with a Day 1 (Friday) net collection of Rs 1.75 crore across all languages. Of this, the Hindi version contributed a significant Rs 1.3 crore, clearly establishing the northern belt as the film's strongest market. The Telugu version followed with Rs 35 lakhs, while Kannada, Tamil, and Malayalam versions opened to limited numbers, together contributing just Rs 10 lakhs. However, the real turnaround began on Saturday, with the film showing an impressive 162.86% growth. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo It collected Rs 4.6 crore, with the Hindi version rising to Rs 3.25 crore and Telugu to Rs 1.15 crore. The Kannada version improved marginally to Rs 11 lakhs, and the Tamil and Malayalam versions also saw slight upticks. The upward trajectory continued into Sunday, with the film raking in an estimated Rs 9.5 crore, marking another 106.52% increase from Saturday. Hindi alone contributed Rs 6.75 crore, while the Telugu version brought in Rs 2.4 crore. The film's total three-day India net collection now stands at Rs 15.85 crore, a solid figure for a mythological film led by a relatively lesser-known film not only showed a massive 442.86 % jump from its day 1 collection but also survived the Saiyaara wave in Hindi belt which has now become the 25th biggest hit of Hindi cinema. Never before has a film with newcomers like Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda performed this well at the box office. The film has been directed by Mohit Suri . What's becoming increasingly clear is that Mahavatar Narsimha is riding on strong word-of-mouth, especially among family audiences and devotees appreciative of its spiritual and moral themes. Its performance is particularly promising given that the film had limited buzz pre-release and a relatively niche theme in a market dominated by commercial action this momentum continues into the weekdays, the film may become a surprise hit.
