Reception Critical response Love Oh Love received mixed reviews from critics.
Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote, "Love Oh Love preaches balance to its couple while never quite finding its own, caught somewhere between making points and telling a story". Akshay Kumar of Cinema Express gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote, "Love Oh Love feels like a Devathaiyai Kanden–meets–Vallavan romance that barely scratches the surface, yet makes no real attempt to capture the emotional heft of either film. It's not often that you're made to sit through a love story so thoroughly unlovable, one that mindlessly stacks up familiar tropes inanimately. The film moves with the mechanical ease of lending and repaying loans, similar to its plot, and is evidently devoid of warmth".
