Reception

Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com gave the show 1 out of 5, writing, "Unlike the program it tries to model itself along the lines of -- Saturday Night Live or The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which are quite entertaining, imaginative, pleasantly insolent and most spontaneous, Oye! is dull, mundane, uninspired and perhaps a bigger disappointment than Don from Farhan Akhtar."^[2]
