Reception

Critical response

Nandini Ramnath from Scroll.in wrote "Shreenivas Pokale and Bhargav Jagtap have a compelling lack of self-consciousness, which lends credibility to their individual and shared moments. Treesha Thosar is so delightful that her occasionally overstated precocity is forgiven". [8] Akhilesh Nerlekar from Loksatta wrote "In this episode, a very sweet story of the relationship between Chaitya and his sister Revati i.e. Chimi is presented to us. Like mother and child, the relationship between brother and sister is very pure, it does not matter whether it is blood or not. This very thing is very well shown in this second part". [9] Devendra Jadhav from Sakal says "Siblings who save each other's lives as children grow up to be on top of each other's evil. So Naal Part 2 forces us to look within ourselves once again. Once again an innocent world stands before the eyes. And we revel in it for a moment. Bass! This is the success of Naal part 2". [10] Kalpeshraj Kubal from The Times of India said, "Sudhakar has created a world that is full of innocence and emotions with this film. The first half hampers the flow of the film but the second part hits a homerun, making Naal 2 a good watch this weekend". [11] Komal Nahta from Film Information wrote "Advait Nemlekar’s background music is impactful. Sudhakar Reddy Yakkanti’s camerawork is splendid. Neeraj Singh’s production designing is so-so. Sanchari Das Moulik’s editing is quite sharp". [12] A reviewer of Navarashtra wrote "In today's hectic life, if you want to watch a movie with a calm, moderate and simple but equally touching plot, you must watch 'Naal 2'". [13] Abhishek Khule from Maharashtra Times wrote "Watch this movie and decide for yourself. All in all, this masterpiece is visually pleasing and a good story to be enjoyed by the whole family".
