The Motion Picture Magazine reviewed, "Under Prahlad Dutt's slow stupid and inane direction, Madhubala loses all coherency and logic.

It stumbles forward in a clumsy manner till you lose all patience with it and curse under your breath every minute of the two hours."

Madhubala was unanimously praised for her work, but other stars including Dev Anand were ridiculed for their performances.
