Reception

Allan Hunter of

Screen Daily wrote "The film may pay heed to its mystical, supernatural elements, but ultimately reveals its true intentions as a call to arms for compassion and the need to show understanding and enlightenment when humanity is tested to the limit".[5] Akash Misra of Sangbad Pratidin wrote, "The 'panic stricken' feel of the screenplay has come out beautifully due to the direction of Sharmistha-Rajdeep. After seeing the picture, we can control time, or is time our controller? It seems that people will get stuck in the cycle of fear, or will they find a way out. Now let's see how the audience receives this film".[6]
