Critical reception
Khalid Mohamed of Hindustan Times gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars, writing ″Like it or not, Soha Ali Khan is hopelessly miscast.The role required at least one per cent of what Smita Patil gave to Bhumika. Ms Khan may be sincere but not mature enough to make you care about this Soya Soya Chand.″ Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5, writing ″On the whole, the film has some interesting moments, but the impact it ought to create as also its slow pacing and excessive length dilute the effect.″
