Today I watched @juniorbachchan Sir’ #Dasvi film which has been shown in a very commendable manner. In which the importance of education has been told. If we have the education minister of our state like this, then the future of education of the youth can be made.@yamigautam pic.twitter.com/R8nFuFkncF— Er.

News18’s review of Dasvi reads, “A no-holds barred political satire, Dasvi (Tenth) makes its point in a way we understand how corrupt our leaders are and how they twist the system in their little fingers to feather their own nests and more. An unforgettable takeaway from this Netflix film is the lack of respect for education in this country. Bachchan is far better than what we have seen of him in earlier works. Yami Gautam, however, is still to come anywhere near her style and substance of her debut outing, Vicky Donor. However, Kaur is splendid, transforming from a meek housewife to a haughty politician, who quickly learns the ropes of the game and understands how the system can be twisted for personal gains.”
