Critical reception

Dashakriya received Positive reviews from critics. A Reviewer of Divya Marathi gave the film 4 stars out of 5 and says "Dashkriya' exposes the looting in the name of religion". [4] Mukund Kule of Maharashtra Times gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "The rest of the technical aspects of the movie are also fine. Songs appear here and there. But the content of the movie is strong. That same feeling is consumed". [5] Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror wrote "In the end, Dashakriya feels like a missed opportunity, a possibility of a great film, settling merely for an average one". [6]

Controversy

In the movie Dashakriya, Brahmins and Hindu traditions have been defamed. Therefore, the Akhil Bharatiya Brahmin Mahasabha demanded that his exhibition be banned. [7] The Aurangabad bench of the Bombay High Court dismissed the plea seeking a ban on the film. Freedom of speech and expression is inevitable. The High Court expressed the opinion that a creative person should get freedom of expression within the ambit of law through plays, movies etc. [8]
