Yet, not all reviews were glowing. Some viewers pointed out pacing issues and criticised certain elements of the script. One tweet read:
“First half = Only 2–3 scenes are impactful. Over-the-top sequences, cringe dialogues, and mid acting. Only one song so far — ‘Mera Hua’, which was decent. The writing is a big mess. Direction — well, the director is mass-oriented.”

Others appreciated the emotional tone but noted it wasn’t flawless:
“Film is all about intensity & depth. A blend of pain & obsession. Music is the heart of this movie. #HarshvardhanRane & #SonamBajwa shine with hardcore emotion throughout. Stellar comeback for Harsh. A bit slow but a good movie.
Ratings – 3.25/5.”
