Reception

Critical response

Pratik Sur from Outlook India said, "The emotional connection that ‘Ghar Waapsi’ manages to bring forth is fantastic. It's this relatability in every young adult's life that audiences would be able to relate to. Leaving aside the technical glitches in the timelines, this Vishal Vashishtha show is definitely a Breezy Weekend Watch. I am going with 3.5 stars." Arushi Jain from Indian Express said, "It is a show that will bring you home or will make you take a break from your humdrum work schedule and sit with your parents and siblings for a little gupshup or maybe a game of Ludo." [6]

Sreeju Sudhakaran from Latestly said, "There are certain movies and show where you start watching as an evaluator but end up being their joyful, smitten fan, looking desperate for the next person to share your opinion on the same. [7] [8]

Grace Cyril of India Today stated, "The performances in the series are all noteworthy" and "Ghar Waapsi's relatability in today’s times is what will touch your hearts.". [3]
