Reception[edit | edit source]
A critic of The Times of India stated that "Santosh Shobhan and Gouri G Kishan fare well in this romantic comedy. But archaic storytelling, trivial comic sequences and lack of engagement make it a drag".[4] Abhilasha Cherukuri of Cinema Express, wrote, "The lack of cinema-appropriate depth-of-field in most frames, the barely functional editing, or the unfunny jokes gives the audience a feeling of watching an amateur short film".[5]
