Reception

The performances of the cast (especially Patekar's) were praised by critics. [22]

Anuj Kumar of The Hindu stated, "The seasoned performer embraces the quirks and quivers of Deepak Tyagi to generate an emotional bond with the audience." [23] Abhishek Srivastava of The Times of India rated 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote, "Sharma revisits familiar territory with ‘Vanvaas,’ a film with a socially relevant theme and genuine intent." and also said, "Patekar delivers a deeply impactful act, bringing authenticity and emotional depth to the trauma of being abandoned by his own sons." [24]

Tanya Garg of English Jagran mentioned, "Nana Patekar's heartfelt drama is a must watch with family" and also added, "The movie skillfully combines drama and emotion to tell a compelling story that appeals to audiences of all ages." [25] IndiaTV called Vanvaas, "Kalyug's Ramayana, you won't be able to stop crying after watching it." [26]

Punjab Kesari wrote, "Vanvaas is a complete family entertainer with a very serious subject but also sprinkled with romance and humor." [27] Navoday Times stated, "Nana Patekar has given a wonderful performance in the film and his dialogue delivery is also amazing." [28]

Amit Bhatia of ABPLive mentioned, "You can watch this movie for your family, it will bring you closer to your family." [29] Pratik Shekhar of News18 rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote, "Nana Patekar's 'Vanvaas' is full of emotions."

Bollywood Hungama News Network gave 3 stars out of 5 and said, "VANVAAS delivers a heartfelt and sincere narrative that resonates deeply. With its poignant subject matter and an emotionally charged climax, it holds the promise of becoming the BAGHBAN for this generation. At the box office, its potential may be hindered by limited pre-release buzz, lack of widespread awareness, and stiff competition from PUSHPA 2 and other new releases.." [32]
