Impressed by the story-telling, direction, and performances of the cast, 'Hollywood News' appreciated the film multiple times such as, "There is a pulpy energy and heart to Bala's craft here that makes Mard Ko Dard Nahi Kota a fresh and deliriously fun slice of B-rate, Bollywood action, and "It's a smart film and one that is littered with references and good storytelling."
Film critic Bedatri D Choudhury said, "Bala's reference in the movie makes an excellent reference that ticks every box in the 80's clichés' so that the movie go down equally well with international audiences and just about anyone else who did not grow up watching such films."
