DNA India says the romantic drama is satisfying and introduces two promising young stars, with Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor giving the film its main appeal.

Hindustan Times says the film is visually attractive and its newcomers are refreshing, but it only touches the surface of the social issues that made Sairat powerful.

Koimoi says the remake works as an entertaining film, helped by strong performances, beautiful locations, music and an effective screenplay.

BollywoodLife says the film is a beautiful homage to Sairat, driven by the chemistry of its young stars and an emotional treatment of their romance.

Pinkvilla says Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor make an engaging pair with strong chemistry, while the emotional ending gives the film considerable impact.

Bollywood Hungama says the simple love story is told effectively, with an engaging screenplay, strong music and confident performances from both newcomers.

News18 says Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor have winning chemistry, but the glossy treatment weakens the caste conflict that gave the original its power.

Filmibeat says Ishaan Khatter is impressive and the film looks grand, but it fails to capture the simplicity and emotional strength of Sairat.

The Times of India says the film has freshness, innocence and engaging performances, even though it lacks the grit and detail of the original.

India TV News says the film has appealing young leads but removes much of Sairat's social depth, making it feel like a typical Bollywood remake.
