Reception
Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express called it an "important film, whose heart is firmly in the right place, lighter on its feet." Shruti Shiksha of Zee News wrote: "Mee Raqsam seems contended being functional while telling its story and putting a rather simplistic message across." Soumya Srivastava of Hindustan Times mentioned that ‘'It's heart is in the right place'’ and some parts of the movie are going to stay with us for a long time." Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in mentioned that "even though the conflict isn't particularly novel, Azmi's interpretation has given it layers".
