DNA India says the film offers a warm and relatable look at first love and the confusion of growing up, helped by likeable performances and youthful charm.

Bollywood Hungama says the film has relatable characters, good performances and entertaining moments, but the weak second half, frequent songs and stretched portions hurt it.

Hindustan Times says the first half is breezy and funny, with likeable performances from Veer Pahariya and Nikhil Vijay. The predictable romance, too many songs and unfocused screenplay keep it from becoming fully satisfying.

Koimoi says the remake loses much of Premalu’s charm because of weak structure, forced emotion and humour that rarely works.

News18 says Veer Pahariya’s boyish charm, Aafiya Sayed’s natural performance and the supporting cast make the film enjoyable.

The Times of India says the film is a breezy Gen Z romantic comedy with good humour and youthful charm. Its predictable story and limited emotional depth stop it from becoming more memorable.

India TV News says Veer Pahariya and Aafiya Sayed share appealing chemistry in a sweet story about friendship, love and the uncertainty of young adulthood.

India Today says the film tries to address modern relationships but becomes preachy and confused. Veer Pahariya puts in effort, but weak writing and repetitive drama prevent the romance from working.
