Dhamaal 4, directed by Indra Kumar and starring Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh and Jaaved Jaaferi, opens in theatres to mixed critical reactions and divided audience feedback on social media. Reviews from outlets describe the film as loud and colourful but slow to start and with comedy that does not consistently land. Several reviews say the first 40–45 minutes focus on introducing characters and tracks, while the treasure-hunt premise only becomes more engaging once the group crosses paths and races for the hidden location. Performances by Jaaved Jaaferi and Sanjay Mishra receive comparatively more praise, while writing and joke density are cited as weak points.
Some audience reactions also target specific content, including the use of a recreated “Bella Ciao” sequence from Money Heist during a treasure hunt moment, which triggers online backlash from viewers who see it as forced or cringe.
Commercially, the film performs strongly at the box office despite the mixed reviews. According to reported figures, Dhamaal 4 earns ₹22.50 crore net in India on Day 2, bringing India net to ₹36.50 crore and worldwide gross to about ₹53.80 crore within two days, crossing the ₹50 crore milestone.
