| The Times of IndiaSrijana Mitra DasStraight away, no-one does freaky with more flair than Shah Rukh Khan. |
| Georgia StraightItrath SyedAn insightful rumination on the codependency between idols and their devotees, disguised as a psychological thriller. |
| Observer (UK)Mark KermodeSuperb special makeup effects work by Greg Cannom enables Bollywood legend Shah Rukh Khan to play both a screen superstar and his youthful lookalike fan in this enjoyably twisty thriller. |
| The HinduNamrata JoshiSRK couldn't have found a better vehicle than Fan, both as an actor and as a celebration of the highs and the lows of his own stardom. |
| ReutersShilpa JamkhandikarFan ends up as a disappointment for its unwillingness to explore the complicated, at times unfathomable relationship between an actor and his fans, and for reducing it to an average thriller. |

| Gulf News (UAE)Manjusha RadhakrishnanIt's engaging to watch a powerful actor and his seemingly powerless admirer indulge in a twisted battle of wills. |
| ScreenAnarchyJ HurtadoThis is a mediocre film saved by the presence of its overpowered, overexposed, and overconfident star. |
| Film Companion ReviewsAnupama ChopraFan is a fascinating but flawed study of celebrity and the reverential relationship we have with our stars. The film is a hall of mirrors with Shah Rukh playing a thinly disguised version of himself as Aryan Khanna the superstar. |
