Deepa Gahlot of Rediff.com rated 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote in her review "There is a lip-smacking indulgence to the way gruesome violence is filmed, and it is done without taking a stance against the amorality."

Anindita Mukherjee for India Today wrote "The show sensitively portrays how casteism is prevalent in certain parts of India to date."

Sanchita Jhunjhunwala for Zoom TV wrote "College, Crime, Caste, Politics, you name it and you will find those intertwining further with each episode."
