Reception

OTTPlay wrote that "Home Town is a series with a routine storyline that could have benefited from more comedy and novelty. However, it falls into the "been there, done that" category, with most scenes evoking a déjà vu feeling rather than offering anything fresh or exciting". ^[5] BH Harsh of Cinema Express rated it 2 out of 5 and wrote that "Home Town remains bland and half-hearted even during its most emotionally potent moments". ^[6]
