Reception

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 1 out of 5, writing, "The reason why a majority of films go unnoticed is courtesy the weak storyline first. The other factors come later. HASTEY HASTEY - FOLLOW YOUR HEART also suffers for this reason. The story idea, credited to one Rohit Batra, is so tacky, so banal, so obsolete, so lifeless that you break into a big yawn 10 minutes into the film. Seriously, you actually pinch yourself. Are you watching a film produced in 2008? Clearly, the writer is the villain here. " [3] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express wrote "In Hastey Hastey, he [Sheirgill] is a student at Columbia, NY, looking way too old. He romances a girl who doesn't seem to have anything in her wardrobe other than handkerchief-sized tops and bottoms. He has a best pal, played by Rajpal Yadav, who wears, horrors, clothes deemed right for an American preppie: capris, tees and baseball caps. Actually, he has a triple role (he's on screen much longer than poor Jimmy) and goes about saying "dude" (pronounced d-yooo-d) and kissing "gori" girls on the mouth. He does it not once, not twice, but thrice. Emraan had better watch out. It can't get much worse than this." [4] Rajiv Kaplish of Tribune India wrote, "What else can one do when there are not one or two but three Rajpal Yadavs in the film? All engaged in a race to make the story as ludicrous as possible. Not that Yadav in a triple role is the one-man demolition squad. Jimmy Shergill who is supposed to be the hero plays no less a damaging role." [5]
