Vicky Kaushal, Triptii Dimri’s highly anticipated film Bad Newz hit the theatres today. The fil has ben garnering a mixed response from fans and viewers.

Renée took to social media to share a heartfelt post, reflecting on her enriching experience working on the film and expressing her gratitude to the team for the opportunity.

Sharing a bundle of BTS photos from the shoot, Renee wrote, “Working on BAD NEWZ has been nothing short of gratifying… it was as good as going to film school… or maybe better… our wonderful crew has taught me so much and I’ve made friends for life ♥️ I’m so grateful to our director @anandntiwari ! Thank you for this opportunity and I look forward to you directing me someday @dimplemathias @bindraamritpal thank you for giving me such a great start .”

She further added, “@_aman49 and our direction team… thank you so so much for teaching me and for all the memories… you’re an important part of my journey ♥️Special mention to Reshma Shetty Ma’am for making this happen♥️ We did it team!!! Cheers to the best BAD NEWZ ✨.”

News18 Showsha reviewed the film with 3 stars and wrote, “Vicky gives it his all to Akhil Chaddha, who seems like an extension of Vicky Sandhu or more appropriately, a mix of Vicky Sandhu and Rocky Randhawa. He maybe impish but he’s the greenest green flag, who loves selflessly with all his heart. It’s him who single-handedly tries to elevate this middling script. His comic timing is great but he surely deserved funnier dialogues. His banter with Ammy are pure gold. A special mention goes to the scene where Akhil and Gurbir meets for the first time at a doctor’s clinic to get their paternity tests done. Their chemistry, in all honesty, is richer than the one shared by Akhil and Saloni.”

“All in all, Bad Newz stays true to its title. It is just a good looking film that shines on the surface. It could have been so much more. The makers barely touch upon the moral policing a woman at the centre of heteropaternal superfecundation may suffer. On the other hand, they could have easily done away with the many songs that keep popping up every now and then. The film solely belongs to Vicky and his Tauba Tauba but let’s caution you that you’ll need to sit till the very end if you want to catch the actor suavely grooving to its cool beats.”
