Reception
[edit]Critical response
[edit]Simran Khan of Times Now gave the film 3 stars (out of 5) and wrote, "While setting up comedy and romance well, the film sometimes stretches thin, however, it offers a light-hearted take on love and delivers laughs and heartwarming scenes despite its flaws".[12] Archika Khurana of The Times of India gave the film 2 stars (out of 5) and wrote, "Beyond the scenic backdrop and decent acting, the story lacks substance, making it a bland tale of love, destiny, and a twist of fate".[13] Deepa Gahlot of Rediff.com rated the film 1 star (out of 5) and commented, "If this were a French farce, nobody would have batted an eyelid if the father of the groom and the mother of the bride fell in love and wanted to marry, but here, some crude comedy is generated with a dash of melodrama".[14] Pratidin Time wrote, "The film embraces small-town charm and a touch of boldness, yet stays within cultural boundaries, navigating with restraint and modesty, while avoiding explicit content; it leaves a lasting impression despite its imperfections, showcasing that love transcends boundaries, even in unexpected settings".[15]
