Reception
Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film 1.5 out of 5 stars and stated, "Between the long-drawn, wholly preposterous idea of fake ‘baraatis’, and two ‘shaadis’, there's just confusion in this Vikrant Massey-Kriti Kharbanda film." Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film 1.5 out of 5 stars and stated, "Notwithstanding the serviceable chemistry between the lead actors and a few performances from the supporting cast, the film goes around in circles." Rahul Desai of Film Companion gave the film a negative review and stated that the film "loses its spirit and identity" and is "half-funny, half-serious And fully confused".
Stutee Ghosh of The Quint gave the film a mixed review and stated, "Given that the humour is pretty flat, the narrative would have benefited with some intense emotional moments and by showing some spine and vision. It almost feels like the message is that as long as one can show off an ostentatious display of wealth and dowry, one can hush up about caste- a rather problematic resolution!" Anita Aikara of Rediff.com gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars and stated, "14 Phere delivers on the feel-good factor, but if you are looking for ground-breaking humour, it will fail to work its way into your hearts." Nandini Ramnath of Scroll gave the film a negative review and criticized the screenplay, performance, the leads, but praised Jameel Khan's performance.
Soundtrack
The music of film was composed by Rajeev V Bhalla and JAM8 while lyrics written by Rajeev. V. Bhalla, Pallavi Mahajan, Geet Sagar and Shloke Lal.
