Reception

Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave 2 stars for the series and wrote "It has no paucity of thrills and chases. But owing to the mechanical, formulaic manner of the mounting, the technical finesse that is on show is of a strictly superficial variety."[8] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express stated "Snappy dialogues and action sequences abound, and like I said, each episode wraps quickly."[9] Deepa Gahlot for Rediff.com felt the series is "not unwatchable" and opined "Even Hussain Dalal's pungent dialogue, with profanity considerably toned down, does not help lift this humourless show."[10]

Shilajit Mitra for The Hindu opined "The performances, likewise, feel second-guessed."[11] Reviewing for India Today, Zinia Bandyopadhyay gave 2 stars out of 5 and wrote "The series stops at being a masala potboiler that does not intrigue you. The screenplay is feeble, and the sequences are too formulaic for it to turn up as a decent thriller."[12] Troy Ribeiro of The Free Press Journal gave some positive review on the series, stating "Yes, the writing is weak, but the dialogues written by Hussain Dalal are worth mentioning. They are dramatically classic and shine in the narrative."[13] Sushmita Dey of Times Now wrote "It may provide fleeting entertainment".[14] Suparna Sharma of The Week wrote " Datt, with the help of talented actors, smart cinematography and editing, is able to create interesting characters and infuse some tension in the plot."[15]
