Agnivo Niyogi of The Telegraph wrote "Abir successfully deconstructs his conventional image to portray a beaten, has-been detective." He also praised the witty dialogues, CGI, colour scheme and the musical score, which keep the audience hooked with the film. Poorna Banerjee of Times of India rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote that although the movie has a long runtime and the first half feels a bit slow, the story picks pace in the second half. She praised the director for keeping alive the utter lack of logic and surrealism in the storyline, while bringing to life characters the audience can connect to. Anandabazar Patrika also reviewed the film 7 out of 10 stars and said that this movie resolves the lack of Bengali culture in movies.
Shamayita Ckaraborty of OttPlay rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "It is pulp fiction and in signature 'ki-hoite-ki-hoiya-gelo' moments, the writers throw all the logical elements up in the air". She also mentioned that the envious music, performance of the whole cast and some unforgettable shots makes the movie a good watch. Times Now rated the film 3 out of 5 stars and mentioned that the resurrection of pulp fiction, the interaction between Deepak and Swapan Kumar successfully captures the nostalgia of 50s literature fiction.
