Baghi Sipahi received mixed reviews from critics. A review by Thought disliked the fact that Madhubala was present in almost the whole film, but found her to be "vivacious" in her role. The sets and other actors were only formally praised. However, according to Thought, the lavish war scenes were great in visuals.[9]
