Reception

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama wrote that "Quite an interesting idea, I must add, but interesting ideas don't necessarily translate into fascinating cinematic experiences". [3] Komal Nahta of Koimoi wrote that "On the whole, Masti Express is too dull to impress at the box-office". [4] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "Funny only in bits and pieces, Masti Express doesn't live up to its name". [5] A critic from Webdunia rated the film 2 out of 5. [6] A critic from Movie Talkies wrote that "Unfortunately, the report card for Vikram Pradhan’s directorial debut reads ‘FAIL’. Ultimately, ‘Masti Express’ is a film thoroughly derailed". [7]
