=== Critical reception ===
Srikanth Srinivasa of ''[[Deccan Herald]]'' felt the film was a "clean, entertaing [sic]" one. Of the acting performances, he wrote, "Abbas is endearing. Avni is attractive. Prema is pretty and Madhavan is peppy. The casting of Satish Shah is unjustified. Prakash Rai outshines all the artistes with his natural performance as a rustic dhaba owner resembling Laloo Prasad Yadav." While he also commended the cinematography, music and playback singing in the film, he felt the film faltered on dubbing and editing, in that "the second half could have been trimmed."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Srinivasa |first1=Srikanth |title=The funny foursome in Shanti!
