On the whole, Phule has bleak commercial prospects as it will be found to be dull and boring like a History book for many among the audience.

Ratings:2.5/5 Review By: Shubhra Site:Indian Express
The two hour plus run time feels like a stretch, cramming so many events — plagues, famines, the 1857 mutiny, the French revolution, Abraham Lincoln’s abolition of slavery — that it begins feeling a cursory compilation of headlines. If there hadn’t been such a pointless fuss made around its subject, ‘Phule’ would have come off exactly as it is, a middling, talky period drama about a remarkable revolutionary couple which set much-needed reforms in motion.

Given how little we know of Jyotirao Phule, the first Mahatma of this country, ‘Phule’ definitely deserves a watch. And if you are not up for it, at least read up on him and Savitribai’s radical journey. They deserve a lot more recognition, respect, and glory. And just like Phule looking to the heavens for answers, perhaps it’s time we look into our own history with the same hope – that someday, stories like theirs are told with the fire they lit.

On the whole, PHULE tells the story of a legendary social revolutionary and rests on the towering performance of Pratik Gandhi. But the film greatly suffers on account of a weak script and lacklustre direction. At the box office, it’ll largely go unnoticed.

Based on the life of social activist, businessman, anti-caste social reformer and writer, Jyotirao Phule aka Jyotiba Phule and his wife Savitribai Phule (the first female teacher of India), the biographical drama showcases the couple’s contributions to social reform and education in India.On the whole, Phule is a must-watch for all the Indians as it is a beautiful tribute to Jyotiba Phule and Savitribai Phule.

Phule, Ananth Mahadevan’s searing ode to these eternal revolutionaries, is a mirror held up to a society that still flinches at its own reflection. It is a reminder that progress is not a straight line, and history does not rest in peace. As long as oppression is repackaged in silence and systemic prejudice cloaks itself in civility, the torch carried by Jyotirao and Savitribai must burn—fierce, unwavering, and defiantly illuminating.

Phule, starring Pratik Gandhi and Patralekhaa, is poignant tribute to the 19th century social reformers. A historically grounded social drama, the Ananth Mahadevan directorial serves as thoughtful portrayal of Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and his wife Savitribai Phule’s legacy. It stands out a strong message of how the revolutionaries fostered a significant change, by fighting against caste discrimination and empowering women, on basis of their educational and intellectual skills.

It’s the simplicity of Phule that makes it a fresh bloom in the era of biopics. The intentions are clear and pure. Patralekhaa and Pratik Gandhi carry Ananth Mahadevan’s direction with strength, making it an important watch. It doesn’t preach or push hard, but instead encourages reflection, telling the story of reformers who have remained relatively underrepresented. The storyline rushes through significant moments, even within its slow-paced narration, briefly making you wish for a 10-second skip button. Still, it’s not preachy but an introduction to Jyotirao Phule and Savitribai Phule’s undeterred passion of ‘kranti’ of the mindsets.

Ratings:3/5 Review By: Akansha Site:Bollywood Bubble
In conclusion, Phule is a remarkable homage to Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and Savitribai Phule. It beautifully sheds light on their legacy and the social causes they fought for. Although the film delivers an educational and inspirational storyline, it encounters some narrative flaws that hinder its full potential. Nevertheless, it captivates viewers with a compelling introduction to the roots of India’s social reform movement. The film powerfully conveys the lasting values of love and justice, showcasing the couple’s unwavering dedication to equality and education.
