Thumbs down by Vikramjit Singh, Desi Martini ...But if you're the kinds who absolutely do need closure on every story, maybe you could find something towards the end. Even under the circumstances, I grudgingly accept that the climax did interest me a bit.... full review

Thumbs down by Smita, Desi Martini ...this is a good attempt at a different kind of story. But as my costing teacher Professor Premchander said to me when I was going to fail his subject in spite of working hard Its not the effort but the result that counts.... full review

Thumbs down by Pankaj Sabnani, Glamsham.com ...Even the courtroom scenes lack drama. Every scene in the last 20 odd minutes of the film seems to be the last, but it goes on and on. ... full review

Thumbs down by Aakash Barvalia, Gomolo.in ...One reason for this anguish story would that when I read the crew details here, there’s being credited 6 people under the Story title, and so this might be the major reason why the story was such a waste... full review

Thumbs down by Noyon Jyoti Parasara, Now Running.com ...The story takes twists and turns, turning up a new surprise every time you think it is over. However the way it moves ahead is not quite welcome... full review

Thumbs down by Shaikh Ayaz, Rediff ...Tena Desae struggles to leave an impact but fails because of her limited acting abilities and a not-so-impressive presence. Having said that it would be unfair to lay all the blame on her.... full review
