Bhaiyaa Ji is a 2024 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film[1] written by Apoorv Singh Karki, who co-wrote it with Deepak Kingrani.

[3][4] It stars Manoj Bajpayee in the titular role, reuniting with Karki after the legal drama Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai (2023).

Following the unfortunate death of his younger brother during a small argument, Bhaiyya Ji (Manoj Bajpayee), a retired and feared criminal, embarks on a quest for justice against the influential Gujjar who is responsible.

It wrote, "Manoj Bajpayee excels in this role, bringing realism to the character with his desi swag and fitting perfectly into the action scenes, despite being 55.

"[28] Shalini Langer of The Indian Express stated "There is a glimmer of hope that Karki is suggesting a Bihari sub-network that runs through cities such as Delhi that people like us see and not see – and that this could be Bhaiyya Ji’s biggest strength.

"[29] Deepa Gahlot of Rediff.com rated 2/5 stars and notes "A film with a one-line plot needed a lot more pizzazz, whistle-worthy dialogue and a large-than-life, invincible protagonist.

Karki makes a Rajinikanth kind of actioner (Bhaiyya Ji fights with a bidi in his mouth) but with a realistic soul, and falls between two boats.

"[31] Abhimanyu Mathur for Daily News and Analysis praised Bajpayee's performance and stated "He is in Rajinikanth and Balakrishna territory here, playing an ageing but powerful hero.
