Reception

Pragya Jha of ABP News stated "Flames season 3 is the right combination of friendship, passion, and emotions, highlighted by a lot of teenage problems." [4]

A reviewer for The Times of India gave 3 stars and stated "Overall, Flames 3 has its heart in the right place, just like its predecessors. A few scenes stand out, particularly the heartfelt conversations between Rajjo and Ishita, making these five episodes (roughly 30 minutes) a perfect blend of friendship, romance, and emotions." [5]

Ganesh Aaglave of Firstpost stated "On the whole, Flames season 3 will make you emotional, bring back nostalgic memories and leave a huge smile on your face at the end." [6]

Moumita Bhattacharjee of Latestly gave season 3, a rating of 1.5 of 5 and stated "Sometimes a few series don't have enough material to stay as charming as ever. Flames season 3 is unfortunately going on the same path, despite its likeable set of actors." [7]
