Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM gave the film 2 out of 5, writing "Shaadi No.1 has a huge star cast, but only a handful of names register an impact. Fardeen, Zayed and Sharman are efficient and what comes as a [pleasant] surprise is that both Fardeen and Zayed have handled the light moments with ease. As far as the leading ladies are concerned, Ayesha Takia and Esha Deol can be singled out. Sanjay Dutt's role might appeal to the masses mainly. Satish Shah is proficient." [2] Kaveree Bamzai of India Today wrote "In a film that seems to comprise the B-list of Bollywood and a strangely enlarged Sanjay Dutt, it is not surprising that the humour falls flat." [3]
