Scene From Bhakshak/Twitter

One X user said, "#Bhakshak on #Netflix is a hard hitting film that is worth every minute This is the kind of work we loved & respected #BhumiPednekar for! She is brilliant & supported by a hilarious & effortless Sanjay Mishra Based on the disturbing 2018 Muzaffarpur case: Don¡¯t miss this."

Another wrote, "Watched #Bhakshak on Netflix. The movie makes you sick to the stomach and angry too. Based on true events. A tale of courage, depravity and a lonely fight for justice. @bhumipednekar,@imsajaimishra #AdityaSrivastava are marvelous in their roles."

One user while hinting at the message in the film said, "We need more #Rakshak than #Bhakshak. The current scenario where still a poor or a middle-class girl is not safe. They were used to fulfill the pleasure of the Bhakshak. Law is for everyone so why does the law not stand for everyone.

One user even gave ratings to the film and wrote,"Bhakshak for me personally is one of the best films of 2024 because it is profound, moving and compelling @bhumipednekar is great along with the entire cast and crew. I congratulate @justpulkit, @RedChilliesEnt and @NetflixIndia for this wonderful film my overall rating is 8/10."

¡°This story needs to be told and heard, and Vaishali Singh is doing her part #Bhakshak a film inspired by true events, now streaming only on Netflix!" wrote one user while praising the film.
