The film is an amateur play at best, with constant cutaways to exaggerated reaction shots from the silent-movie era

The Hindu

Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi is a sweet but slight love story that is stretched so much that by the end, we no longer care if Shirin and Farhad live happily ever after or not

An awkward film, interspersed with some heartwarming scenes

Mint

This Shirin and Farhad might not make for eternal lovers but then the audience would identify with their ordinariness. And that makes for a decent watch

It's a crazy ride guaranteed to leave you grinning as you leave the cinema

At under two hours, Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi demands little of you and delivers enough for you to not grudge spending time and money on it

Shirin Farhad ki Toh Nikal Padi is far from the tight, flawless film it could’ve been. Strange lip-sync songs are jarringly sung by mismatched voices end up akin to dirty linen in a dishwasher; entirely out of place

Sehgal’s film is clearly aiming for the warm family humour of the Hrishikesh Mukherjee variety, but it’s simply not funny enough

Firstpost

With all the Cyruses, Ferozes, Perizaads, salli botis, dikras, dikris - this one is full of stereotypical bawa-isms, hilarious in parts; sweet as lagan-nu-custard in some, and mostly endearing

Though a bit on the sluggish side, Shirin Farhad Ki To Nikal Padi is warm-hearted and generally watchable
