Release

The film had a theatrical release on 16 April 2021. A reviewer from Cinema Express wrote Chasing is "an awful, loud cop film with not a shred of logic" and that "with writing that's all over the place, the film fails in every possible way". [7] A reviewer from Times of India noted "the film, which lacks thrills, adequate character detailing and engaging narration, is a forgettable snooze fest". [8]
