== Summary ==
Rooted in the subculture of societal facts, Panga is an emotional roller coaster tale of a middle-class [[India]]n woman, where a forgotten [[Kabaddi]] world champion catalyzes an inner desire to give a new meaning to her existing role as a wife and mother and takes an ingenious decision to come back to the sport despite the challenges of age stereotypes and new generation complexities which creates an upheaval in her life as she is torn between societal pressures of family responsibility and love for the sport.

== Plot ==
Jaya Nigam is a middle-class railway reservation counter clerk and former Kabaddi champion living with her husband Prashant Sachdeva, a railway section engineer, and 7-year-old son Aditya "Adi" Sachdeva, in Bhopal. Despite the support of both Prashant and Adi, she regrets having to quit the sport after Adi's birth. Learning of her achievements through Prashant, Adi pushes her to return to the sport despite facing challenges of physical fitness and newer, more experienced players, while her friend, former teammate, and Kabaddi coach Meenal "Meenu" Singh, helps her with the training. Initially unable to deal with the pressures of a hectic job and the exercise routines that Adi's enthusiasm pushes her through, she finally regains composure and, with support from Prashant and Adi, goes on to mark her comeback to the sport as a mother of a 7-year-old after her story gets noticed again. In the big finale, she wins the Kabaddi cup for team India.

=== Development ===
''Panga'' was announced on 21 August 2018 with [[Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari]] sharing an emotional Instagram video montage of herself, [[Kangana Ranaut]], [[Jassi Gill]], [[Neena Gupta]] and their families, indicating that "when your kin stands behind you, no one in the world can take ‘panga’ with you".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmua0nxnj43/|title=My existing reality is a reflection of my dear ones' belief in me.

My family has been my pillar of strength and has always stood by me through thick and thin. I could really relate to the emotions of the film. Plus, Ashwiny is known for her slice-of-life films and I loved her recent work in Bareilly Ki Barfi. Panga is even more special for me as, for the first time, I will be playing the role of a national-level [[kabaddi]] player. That's going to be challenging for sure! I am looking forward to some exciting times with Ashwiny and the Fox Star team.”<ref name="ht"/>

Gil,l who is playing the role of Ranaut's husband in this film told the Mumbai Mirror: “I loved the script, especially the inspiring family angle. The film is a roller-coaster of emotions but to me the real Indian family feeling was the most heart-warming part of the subject. Since I come from a very close-knit family, I could identify with the story.”<ref name="ht">{{Cite web|url=https://m.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/panga-kangana-ranaut-s-kabaddi-movie-with-ashwiny-iyer-tiwari-gets-a-title/story-Sl5Q6YaMnwQRWHRspc1xmL.html|title=Panga, Kangana Ranaut's kabaddi film title announced with emotional Instagram video|publisher= Hindustani Times|date=21 August 2018|access-date=7 March 2019}}</ref>

[[Anupama Chopra]] of ''[[Film Companion]]'' wrote, "''Panga'' works on the strength of its performances and its writing". Praising Ranaut's performance she further wrote, "Kangana Ranaut plays Jaya with skill, sensitivity and nuance, this is a terrific actor at the top of her game".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 24, 2020|title=Panga Movie Review: Potent Messaging Delivered With Humor And Lightness|url=https://www.filmcompanion.in/reviews/bollywood-review/panga-movie-review-potent-messaging-delivered-with-humor-and-lightness/|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[Film Companion]]|language=en}}</ref> Sreeparna Sengupta from ''[[The Times of India]]'' gave ''Panga'' a rating of 4/5 and stated, "''Panga'' is an exhilarating ode to motherhood and chasing dreams". Calling Ranaut the ''tour de force'' of the film she further stated, "Kangana Ranaut as Jaya is terrific and the tour de force of the film – at home she is the gentle, dutiful Jaya who is simmering with this latent desire to break out and catch up with her dreams. And when she is on the court Kangana thrills with an absolutely throbbing, pulsating performance. She breathes in vulnerability and power – switching between the two facets of her character so swiftly and seamlessly that it is totally fascinating".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 23, 2020|title=Panga Movie Review: An exhilarating ode to motherhood and chasing dreams!|url=https://m.timesofindia.com/entertainment/hindi/movie-reviews/panga/movie-review/73555502.cms|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[The Times of India]]|language=en}}</ref> Aparita Bhandari from ''[[The Globe and Mail]]'' gave ''Panga'' rating of 3/4 and wrote, "''Panga'''s strength lies in its capable cast, which brings heart to a largely contrived script that tells more than it shows." Praising Ranaut's performance she further wrote, "As Jaya, Ranaut brings a vulnerability to a character who is filled with self-doubt, understands the ways in which society characterizes a mother chasing her own ambitions as selfish and cruel, and knows her limits".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 24, 2020|title=Panga's cast brings heart to a contrived script |url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/film/reviews/article-pangas-cast-brings-heart-to-a-contrived-script/|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[The Globe and Mail]]|language=en}}</ref> Rachel Saltz from the ''[[The New York Times]]'' wrote, "''Panga'' has an understated realism — about the tempos of family life and the Indian middle class, the drama, too, is understated: bumps in a road paved with good will rather than a clash of values and goals." Praising Ranaut's performance she further wrote, "Ranaut as Jaya elevates the movie, putting the story across better than the script can. Ranaut makes Jaya credible and specific; she’s not an every woman or every mom or every athlete. She’s this one, Jaya, and Ranaut makes you care about what kind of place she can find for herself in the world".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 26, 2020|title='Panga' Review: Put Me in Coach, I Have Life Experience|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/26/movies/panga-review.html|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[The New York Times]]|language=en}}</ref>

Monika Rawal Kukreja from ''The [[Hindustan Times]]'' described ''Panga'' as a "emotional roller-coaster" and wrote, "''Panga'' is an honest, relatable film that will stay with you long after you leave the theatre" and "A sincere ode to motherhood and those countless sacrifices that a woman – as a mother and a wife -- makes for her family". Praising Ranaut's performance she further wrote, "Kangana is in her element and once again proves why she’s a star who doesn’t belong to any league of actors, but has a niche of her own; she lets you connect with Jaya in whatever she does, the way she speaks, dresses, cries, laughs, goes to work, takes care of her family and amid all this, wants to be happy for herself".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 24, 2020|title=Panga movie review: Kangana Ranaut touches your heart in this emotional roller-coaster |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/panga-movie-review-kangana-ranaut-touches-your-heart-in-this-emotional-roller-coaster/story-ro7Le32jXBxZFBrpzl7EFL.html|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[Hindustan Times]]|language=en}}</ref> Stutee Ghosh from ''[[The Quint]]'' gave ''Panga'' a rating of 4/5. Calling Ranaut's performance "terrific" and "nuanced" she stated, "''Panga'' isn’t limited to a tussle in a kabaddi match, though those sequences are brilliantly shot, it's about not letting life get the better of you; even at the end it isn’t a carefully curated victory lap that the film offers".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 24, 2020|title=Review: Nuanced Screenplay, Performances Make 'Panga' a Winner |url=https://www.thequint.com/entertainment/movie-reviews/panga-kangana-ranaut-richa-chadha-neena-gupta-full-movie-review|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[The Quint]]|language=en}}</ref> Saibal Chatterjee from ''[[NDTV]]'' gave the film a rating of 3.5/5. Calling it a "not-to-be-missed gem" he stated, "''Panga'' is a tale that does not sacrifice authenticity for flashy plot sleights or thrills of a superficial nature". Praising Ranaut's performance he further stated, "The role fits Kangana Ranaut to absolute perfection and there isn't a single false note in her performance".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 24, 2020|title=Panga Movie Review: Kangana Ranaut Is Absolute Perfection In This Not-To-Be-Missed Gem|url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/panga-movie-review-kangana-ranauts-film-is-a-not-to-be-missed-gem-3-5-stars-out-of-5-2168887|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[NDTV]]|language=en}}</ref>

Pramit Chatterjee of ''[[Mashable| Mashable India]]'' gave ''Panga'' a rating of 4/5 and wrote,
"''Panga'' is more than just a sports film about female empowerment; it is an intimate look into why women should follow their dream, even if they had to adhere to social norms, and how everyone else around them should look beyond their selfish needs and whole-heartedly support them." Calling Ranaut's performance in ''Panga'' her career-best he further wrote, "Every time the camera is on her, you can see how many thoughts and emotions that are running through her mind and she does it so effortlessly; neither does she overdoes [sic] and nor does she underdoes [sic] it, she is perfect as Jaya Nigam, thereby making one of the best fictional characters".<ref>{{Cite news|date=January 24, 2020|title='Panga' Review: Kangana Ranaut's Sports Flick Is Female Empowerment At Its Most Practical|url=https://in.mashable.com/entertainment/10805/panga-review-kangana-ranauts-sports-flick-is-female-empowerment-at-its-most-practical|url-status=live|access-date=June 7, 2021|website=[[Mashable| Mashable India]]|language=en}}</ref> Subhash K Jha from ''[[The National Herald (India)]]'' wrote, "''Panga'' really needs no prompting to be loved, you surrender to its affectionate homage to the housewife’s revived dreams wholeheartedly."
