Critical reception edit
Reza Noorani of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 2 out of 5 and said that, "In an effort to capture the magic of the tragic love story it is inspired from, 'Mirza Juuliet' crumbles under its own ambition and becomes a cinematic tragedy instead."[11] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film a rating of 1 out of 5 and said that, "Mirza Juuliet is a crass, clammy and clichéd concoction that is best avoided. The single star isn't for the film. It's for Darshan Kumaar."[12] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film a rating of 1/2 star out of 5 stars and said that, "This film comes stuffed with the most abominable clichés which are clearly aligned to the power structures in place. This is not a film, it is a travesty."[13] Stutee Ghost of The Quint gave the film a rating of 1 out of 5 under the headline, "This One's So Bad, It's Truly a Tragedy".[14]
