Reception

Bench Talkies opened to positive reviews from the critics. M. Suganth, editor-in-chief of

The Times of India gave it 3 out of 5, stating that "The compilation of six films from six filmmakers in different genres makes it an entertaining experience."[4] Baradwaj Rangan of The Hindu wrote "The key word is amateur, so it won’t help to go in expecting professional-grade acting or craft. What we can (must) do is see how these films fare in purely directorial terms."[5] Behindwoods gave 2.5 out of 5 stars for the film stating "A little more concentration on the content would have justified the overall effort better."[6] In contrast S. Saraswathi of Rediff gave 2 out of 5 stars stating "Bench Talkies is a very ordinary collection of short films. They fail to impress, leaving you with a sense of dissatisfaction."[7]
