Cast

Critical reception

The film gained mostly negative reviews. Gaurav Malani from Times of India stated that the film has most scenes from the prequel and nothing more than in sequel. [2] Preeti Arora from Rediff, rated the film 2 out of 5, stated that film is new, but the content is old. [3] Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times gave the film 1 star out of 5, stating that film has unusual content. [4] Komal Nahta gave the film 1 star out of 5, writing "On the whole, Jaana Pehchana is a well-made and well-enacted film but its commercial prospects seem bleak. Since the film has opened in just one cinema in the whole of India, lack of promotion will also prove to be a deterrent because mouth publicity would have to be super-strong for the film to make its mark at the box-office."
