Reception
The film received a mixed reception by critics. Taran Adarsh praised the performances of the main actors and the music by Anu Malik such as 'Humnasheen' and 'Mujhse Kyon Roothe Ho?' but said "the sluggish pace of its narrative and classy treatment act as barricades. And the pre-climax portions, involving the child and the conclusion to the triangle, take the graph of the film downhill."[2] Patcy N of Rediff.com criticised the script and remarked that "there were too many holes in it" and questioned the choice of film for a debut by the director.[1]
