Reception
A critic from The Times of India rated the film two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "The lead actors give the film their best, but the extended screenplay that shifts focus between the fun cat and mouse game between the lead pair leaves one wishing the film was shorter". A critic from The New Indian Express wrote that "With very limited characters, the film is highly recommended for those who just want to laugh out loud". A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote that "If you can bear the length, Zoom is for time pass. Beware of whom you watch it with". A critic from The Hindu wrote that "There are films that expect you to leave your brains at home and then there is Zoom, in a category of its own. And that is not necessarily a good thing".
