 A review in "India Today" noted that the story could potentially have been a "four-hankie tearjerker" but Sareen failed "to deliver".It opined that the "typically over-confident Bollywood brat" Aditya Narayan was the film's biggest problem and it was Khan who "[kept] the film going" quite opposite to Khanna's "awkward hysterics".Concluding the review, it called for her "to take both acting and grooming lessons from mom".
