[11] On 2 June 2023, Rajendra Sadashiv Nikalje, popularly known as Chhota Rajan objected over his picture and voice used in the series alleging the infringement of personality rights to the fellow makers.

Rajan's attorney, senior advocate Mihir Desai, answered that his client has a copyright on his image that no one else can use when the bench questioned how it could be maintained as a commercial intellectual property rights dispute and stated it should be sent to mediation.

[17][18] The Hindu wrote "Karishma Tanna and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub power this series about the pitfalls of ambition and the price of journalistic grit.

"[19] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV rated 4 stars out of 5 and wrote "Wending its way through its many sub-plots, Scoop stays focussed on the plight of a woman subjected to mud-slinging by her own fraternity and a police force under pressure to crack a particularly vexed case and find a scapegoat.

"[21] Santanu Das for Hindustan Times called it "one of the best shows of the year" praising the screenplay and wrote "Not a single minute is wasted in the hour-long, 6-episode long series, created by Mehta and Mrunmayee Lagoo Waikul-- diving headlong inside the middle of everyday journalistic hustle: tracking breaking news, connecting with undercover sources, and bringing the report down to the page.

"[22] Debiparna Chakraborty from Best of Netflix rated the series 4/5 and wrote "The cast and crew of Scoop deliver a well-written and effectively-performed story, barring a few slip-ups here and there.

"[25] Sumit Rajguru from Times Now gave 3.5 stars out of 5 praising the performance and direction stating, "The Hansal Mehta Show could have been edited well, but the 6-episodes of the series are nothing but a delight to watch.
