Suparna Majumder of Sangbad Pratidin reviewed the film on a positive note and wrote " Kaushik Ganguly has successfully interwoven the emotions of love, anger, grief with the past and present. All the actors, specially Prosenjit, Rituparna and Silajit have successfully done their roles."[30]
Poorna Banerjee of Times of India rated the film 3 out of 5 stars and wrote " The dialogues and script moves at a sluggish pace, making the second half more slow. Despite the music and the beautiful settings, the romance lacks emotional depth."[31]
Sudip Ghosh of Anandabazar Patrika rated the film 7.5 out of 10 stars and wrote " The director has failed to justify the thriller part in the film." He praised the chemistry between Prosenjit-Rituparna, acting of the actors, the story and its twists.[32]
Shamyita Chakraborty of OTTplay rated the film 3 out of 5 stars. He specially praised Silajit's acting skills. He wrote " Silajit's tiny touches and simple gestures make the character look real and his subdued acting is a pleasure to watch. Prosenjit - Rituparna shared a charming chemistry." He praised the music, background score and cinematography. But he also criticised the elusiveness of Prasen's character and the umpteen number of times reference to Lord Jagannath.[33]
Souvik Saha of Cine Kolkata rated the film 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote " The stellar performance of the cast and dialogues are the USP of the film. But the slow second half and predictability of the film makes it a one time watch."[34]
Subhasmita Kanji of Hindustan Times rated the film 4.1 out of 5 stars and wrote "The performance of the whole cast, fine storytelling of the director, the music and dialogues - everything was perfect to make it a mind refreshing film."[35]
