== Reception ==
Reviewing for ''[[The Indian Express]]'' Arushi Jain wrote "The main selling point of The Raikar Case is its able cast. Atul Kulkarni, who plays the family patriarch, is as good as he has always been. He plays both the suspect of a murder and a victim of politics convincingly. Ashvini Bhave's experience shows in her performance as she plays Kulkarni's wife Sakshi."<ref>{{cite news |last=Jain |first=Arushi |title=The Raikar Case review: An engaging whodunnit with compelling performances |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/web-series/the-raikar-case-review-atul-kulkarni-parul-gulati-voot-select-6353190/ |url-access=limited |access-date=7 July 2023 |work=[[The Indian Express]] |language=en}}</ref>

''[[The Times of India]]'' wrote "Each episode ends on a cliffhanger, making you want to jump right over to the next one. Though, after a point, the drama does become predictable and the pace too tends to slow down."<ref>{{cite news |last=Khurana |first=Archika |title=The Raikar Case Season 1 Review : An engaging whodunnit |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/web-series/reviews/hindi/the-raikar-case/the-raikar-case-season-1/seasonreview/76172870.cms |access-date=6 July 2023 |work=[[The Times of India]] }}{{rating|3.5|5}}</ref>

Ruchi Kaushal of ''[[Hindustan Times]]'' praised star cast performances and wrote "Atul is exemplary as he exudes power on one hand but appears vulnerable and fragile in circumstances not in his favour. Ashwini Bhave makes a wonderful comeback in a meaty role. Neil and Parul Gulati emerge as the central leads and do justice to the task at hand."<ref>{{cite news |last=Kaushal |first=Ruchi |title=The Raikar Case review: The whodunnit has more family drama than suspense |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/tv/the-raikar-case-review-atul-kulkarni-neil-bhoopalam-s-whodunnit-has-more-family-drama-than-suspense/story-ui0E29OwpGZx9eiurromTO.html |access-date=7 July 2023 |work=[[Hindustan Times]] |language=en}}</ref>

A critic from ''[[Pinkvilla]]'' rated the series 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "The Raikar Case couldn't have come through without good performances."<ref>{{cite news |last=Sharma |first=Dishya |title=The Raikar Case Review: Ashvini Bhave stands out in this star studded concoction of murder mystery and drama |url=https://www.pinkvilla.com/entertainment/reviews/raikar-case-review-ashwini-bhave-stands-out-star-studded-concoction-murder-mystery-and-drama-522880 |access-date=7 July 2023 |work=[[Pinkvilla]] |language=en}}{{rating|3|5}}</ref>

''[[Scroll.in]]'' reviewd and wrote "Writers Bijesh Jayarajan, Karmanya Ahuja and Anitha Nair use the Rashomon technique to present varying possibilities.
