Nana Patekar&amp;#039;s acting as Rakesh Maria was appreciated. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Firstpost]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; wrote in their review— &amp;quot;Nana holds the film together. He feels every line that he utters. His heart bleeds for each one of the 166 people who died on that night. When he tells Kasab in a choked voice, &amp;quot;I have a son of your age&amp;quot;, Nana isn&amp;#039;t faking it. His performance goes way beyond acting.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;First Post review&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Movie review: RGV&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;The Attacks of 26/11&amp;#039; recreates Mumbai&amp;#039;s horrific night|url=http://www.firstpost.com/bollywood/movie-review-rgvs-the-attacks-of-2611-recreates-mumbais-horrific-night-644934.html|website=Firstpost|date=1 March 2013|accessdate=18 May 2013}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
