Critical reception

Sarvjit Singh Chauhan of ABP News noted "Rishabh Chaddha got recognition when he appeared in Ajay Devgan's hit film Drishyam. In this series, he has done exactly what he was asked to do. However, while doing comedy, he seems to be working hard. Due to which his impact is not very special. But Abigail Pandey has played her role well. She looks flawless". [10] Times of India 's Sreeparna Sengupta rated the show 2.5 stars, noting that both Abigail Pande and Rishab Chadha deliver sincere performances and bring a fresh energy to the otherwise tepid show. She described "Divorce ke liye Kuch Bhi Karega" as a light-hearted, one-time watch. [11] Risha Ganguly of Times Now News gave the show 3 stars. She mentioned that "while the show is an enjoyable watch for those seeking a breezy, laugh-filled rom-com, its predictable storytelling and uneven execution make it somewhat laborious to watch".
