Raj Thackeray, who was last seen at his cousin Uddhav Thackeray's swearing-in ceremony held at Shivaji Park in Dadar posted his review on Panipat in Marathi and English.

Here's what Raj Thackeray had to say about the movie: The Panipat war is etched in our history as a classic manifestation of how the Marathas valiantly fought this war to preserve our sovereignty. They took their flag right up to Attock city (Pakistan) and yet fell short of a victory. To get the perspective behind this defeat, one needs to go back into our history of the Panipat war."
