Film Critic Shubhra Gupta wrote in [[The Indian Express]] - "Bamfaad brings back memories of the small-town love story that Bollywood used to tell, and keeps us watching with a fluid flourish or two, even if we wish for much more freshness, as it takes us to a fully filmi end.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/movie-review/bamfaad-movie-review-rating-6356312/|title=Bamfaad movie review: Aditya Rawal delivers a restrained, convincing performance|date=10 April 2020}}</ref>

Film Critic Anna MM Vetticad wrote in [[Firstpost|First Post]] - "True to its title, ''Bamfaad'' has a fiery start. The striking introduction melds realism, humour and an earthy song. She mentioned, "The second half of ''Bamfaad'' does not live up to the promise of the pre-interval portion. Still, the director Ranjan Chandel and Writer Hanzalah Shahid are talents to watch out for. For one, in this era of stereotype-ridden, Islamophobic Bollywood rants, it is nice to see a film in which the protagonist is a Muslim, but is not given any stereotypical markers of the religion, and members of the community are treated as regular humans: some good, some not, some evil, some not". She also mentioned, "Besides, how can one not make a note of artists who can conceptualise a scene in which a love-lorn youth gazing at the object of his affection tells her that pimples look good on her face? He does not say “even pimples”, he simply says “pimples”. Oh, the sweet innocence of those words! Because of course on her they are an adornment, not a skin eruption – “that dress looks good on you”, “the new hairstyle looks good on you”, “pimples look good on you”.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/bamfaad-movie-review-aditya-rawal-makes-his-mark-in-an-engaging-even-if-generic-crime-and-love-saga-8247841.html|title=Bamfaad movie review: Aditya Rawal makes his mark in an engaging, even if generic, crime-and-love saga- Entertainment News, Firstpost|date=10 April 2020|website=Firstpost}}</ref>
