The Zoya Factor Review: Netizens and critics stand divided
The Zoya Factor: The most talked-about film 'The Zoya Factor' has been released & now it’s time to hear the netizens' views on the light romcom The Zoya Factor
The Zoya Factor has created quite a buzz on the internet. Although the movie revolves around deep-seated social issues, the film deals with a light story. As per reports, the writing is not that sharp, and the characters except Zoya Solanki are not developed. Despite the fact that the opening and closing of the movie are both narrated by none other than Shah Rukh Khan, and there is a hilarious special appearance of Daddy Kapoor (Anil Kapoor), the film doesn't seem to be working out well at the box office (a collection of Rs. 65-75 lakhs reportedly). Netizens have shared their views on the movie, check out below -
