Critical reception
editSantosh Bhingarde of Sakal rated 3 stars out of 5 stars and acknowledging that while the film's pacing and screenplay falter in the second half, particularly due to its low budget and technical limitations, it still demonstrates the writer and director's effort and potential. He appreciate the refined plot and fun concept, highlighting the overall positive aspects despite the flaws.[7] Sanjay Ghaware of Lokmat rated 3 stars out of 5 stars and finds the screenplay by Sumit to be precise but slow-paced, and notes that the film's delayed release and title are detrimental. Despite some predictable moments and neglected plot points, the strong dialect work, witty dialogues, and commendable performances by the cast, including Parna Pethe and Sumit, stand out as positives.[8] Anub George of The Times of India rated 2.5 stars out of 5 stars and wrote "A few twists and turns, and some comic relief help the film, but it's still not the best one in the genre out there."[9]
