Release
Critical reception
The film received very negative reviews from critics. Most dismissed the film as "slapstick".
India Today Group gave the film 1 star out of 5, and said, "Unfortunately, the writers seem to have exhausted themselves thinking of the funny names and the interesting premise. There is nothing beyond it, except for two senseless item songs, one each for Irani and Mirza to stretch their legs." Rajeev Masand
of CNN-IBN gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5, and stated, "Despite juvenile jokes like peeing on open electric wires, Fruit & Nut is mercifully not the sort of vulgar comedy we’ve got used to seeing at the cinemas these days."

Box office
Fruit and Nut failed to perform well at the box office, partly due to high-budget film like All The Best: Fun Begins, which had released the previous week. The film earned around ₹ 3-4 million in its first week, and was declared a flop/disaster.[4]
