Critical reception
Though critics praised the performances of Nana Patekar and Dimple Kapadia, the movie on the whole received poor ratings. Tushar Joshi of Mid Daygave it Minty Tejpal of Bangalore Mirror said that Patekar and Kapadia are "a treat to watch" in an otherwise weak film. Gaurav Malani of The Economic Times gave it two stars, claiming it is not entertaining enough, but wrote of the leads, "Nana Patekar is in his elements inducing humour through his straight-faced expressions. Dimple Kapadia as the Parsi café owner is absolutely delightful. Together, Nana and Dimple share good chemistry and complement each other pretty well." Ajit Duara of Open magazine concluded his review saying, "Dimple is ravishing, yes, but the amateurish acting, typecasting and godawful songs let you down." Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times gave it anegative review. Anupama Chopra was critical of the film, the script and the story, but praised the leads. A more positive review came from The Times of India, "Watch it for the veterans' winsome act, the spirit of Mumbai and for a tale told well."
