Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India Wrote "Shende and Shinde have performed well but for a film to sustain only on the basis of a couple of performances is not possible". [5] Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror says "The bottom line is that Babanchi Shala scores on the good intention but struggles to make a passing grade". [6] Saumitra Pote from Maharashtra Times wrote "In the advertisement of this movie, V. Shantaram's 'Do Ankhe Barah Haath' is referred to. Both these films have similarities only in terms of story. Otherwise, comparing the two is sheer madness". [7]
