Critical response

Renuka Vyavahare of Times of India wrote, "While the story is relevant, setting authentic and performances decent, the sluggish pace is sleep-inducing."[5] Vyavahare also noted that while the socio-political issues raised by the film were important, the meaning is lost as the characters come across as hypocritical.[5] "Sadly, all they do is preach and then commit an idiotic crime themselves, much against their own values and beliefs."[5] Vyavahare subsequently gave the film a rating of two stars out of five.[5] Subhash K Jha of Skjbollywoodnews.com gave the film three stars out of five, praising the actors for delivering "fully believable performances", but noting that "the film flounders in the over-dramatic pauses in the plot" Free Press Journal also levied criticism at the story line in their two stars out of five review, describing the film as "not being singularly focused and with a few plot-holes, the story seems superficial, convoluted and manufactured."[6]

Soundtrack

The soundtrack for the film is released by T-Series label and includes songs performed by singers Sonu Nigam, Mohit Chauhan, Sharda Sinha, Swanand Kirkire and Bharat Vyas. The music director is Ashutosh Singh. [7][8]
