== Reception == | |||
The film received critical acclaim. In [[OTTplay]], Shamayita Chakraborty wrote, "Lokhi Chele is a must-watch. Besides the issue that the film deals with, its treatment, violence, disturbance and subtle non-linear storytelling are something that we have not seen in Bengali films for a while. There are problems in the film and yet we must encourage our friends, family members and colleagues to watch it just for the sake of the issue it deals with. Lokkhi Chele is an unsettling film that should be watched and rewatched until we see an end to the dark reality of superstitions in India".<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.ottplay.com/amp/review/lokkhi-chele-review-kaushik-ganguly-creates-a-deeply-disturbing-saga-that-holds-a-mirror-up-to-society/26edbb5d3e285 | title=Lokkhi Chele review: Kaushik Ganguly creates a deeply disturbing saga that holds a mirror up to society }}</ref> | |||
Aritra Banerjee from ''[[Film Companion]]'' stated "It is an entertaining film, it is a very engaging film. At the same time, it is a very honest film", praising the film's screenplay, acting performances, cinematography and editing. | |||
''[[The Indian Express]]'' gave a mixed review: "It tries to critique religious dogmatism but its ambitions are marred because of an almost amateurish screenplay".<ref>Premankur Biswas (August 29, 2022 ) [https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/regional/lokkhi-chele-review-a-promising-concept-marred-by-amateurish-writing-8119180/lite/ Lokkhi Chele review: A promising concept marred by amateurish writing].
