Critical reception

Reza Noorani of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 saying that, "While the philosophical turn the film takes is interesting, it’s a tad too metaphysical. A different kind of horror, go for this one if you’re interested in a good dose of philosophy with your horror." [10] Vishal Verma of Glamsham praised the concept, cinematography, background music by Shantanu Sudame and the acting performances of actors Kunaal Roy Kapur and debutant Ananya Sengupta and said that, "THE FINAL EXIT is a mind twister for the common audience and it requires an extra understanding of the other aspect of evil." The critic gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5. [11]
