Reception The series received generally positive reviews for its performances, though some critics felt the condensed eight-episode format was rushed compared to the original 22-episode seasons of Jane the Virgin.
The Times of India gave the series 3 out of 5 stars, calling it a "pot-pourri of emotional highs and lows" and praising the performances.
Scroll.in noted that the series "rolls out ample distractions from its archaic views on sex" and highlighted Shweta Basu Prasad's performance.
OTTPlay described it as "effortlessly bingeable," noting the combination of traditional television style with contemporary dialogue.
Hollywood Reporter India called it a "watchable but uninspired remake," stating that it "loses its bite in translation."
