Reception

Suparna Majumder of Sangbad Pratidin reviewed the film and wrote "The director has woven the screenplay for his film about the grief and difficulties that a childless couple face in their senile phase." She appreciated the topic that the film deals with and the performance of the lead cast but bemoaned the weak direction, extremely poor screenplay, multiple loopholes in the plot in around the four days of Puja, continuity issues, not impalpable reaction of the characters to certain situations, redundant usage of songs and the weak cinematic thinking.
