Reception
editCritical reception
editKomal Nahta of Koimoi gave it half out of five stars and wrote in his review – "On the whole, Yeh Dooriyan is a poor fare which will meet with a disastrous fate at the box-office windows".[1] Nikita Kapoor of FilmiTadka rated it with 1 out of 5 stars and said – "Yeh Dooriyan has nothing new or unique, out of the various departments that Deepshikha has tried to handle though this film, acting is the only part she has got right. We at FilmiTadka give Yeh Dooriyan 1 out of 5 stars".[2] Nikhat Kazmi of Times of India gave it 2 out of 5 stars and wrote – "Deepshikha, on her part, does put in a restrained act as the suffering heroine, but can't say the same for the male acts. The men in the film are either hysterical (husband) or plastic (boyfriend) and the girlie gang (Delnaaz and Chitrashi) are borderline bimbettes".[3] Taran Adarsh gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5, but called it "a decent attempt".[4]
