Upon release, the received mixed to positive reviews from critics. While The Times of India praised the chemistry and music, calling it "a slow burner that rewards patience," some critics felt the parallel love story diluted the impact of the main plot. Commercially, the film was a moderate underperformer. It earned approximately ₹2.5 crore net in India against a modest budget. However, in the age of OTT (Over-the-Top) streaming, the film found a second life on platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime, where its intimate storytelling style was appreciated by a wider global audience.
Rhea Chakraborty’s portrayal of Aisha is perhaps the most nuanced performance of her career. Aisha is not the typical "sanskari" (cultured) Bollywood heroine. She is selfish in her ambitions, vocal about her discomforts, and unwilling to compromise her dreams for the sake of domestic bliss. While some audiences may find her choices polarizing, she represents the modern Indian woman who refuses to be defined solely by her marital status. Her journey is one of realizing that love sometimes requires sacrifices, but not at the cost of one's soul.
