Srivathsan Nadadhur from ''[[OTTPlay]]'' gave the film 2.5/5 stars and wrote that "Sarkaaru Naukari, a film unfolding the dynamics between a couple navigating a societal taboo in the 90s, proves only partially captivating.

''Sarkaaru Naukari'' earns a 2/5 from an Indiaglitz critic, recognizing the director's dedication and the cast's talent. Yet, the film is criticized for lacking a distinctive narrative approach, preventing it from making a memorable impact. Despite effectively portraying government job challenges, it falls short of providing the unique perspective needed to truly captivate the audience.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.indiaglitz.com/sarkaru-noukari-review-hollywood-movie-33814|title=Sarkaru Noukari review.
