Critical reception

edit

Deborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter praised the film’s acting performances and dialogues, saying, “India’s classes face off in an energetic, off-beat young road movie poised between drama and farce.” [2] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 and said that, "Yahaan Sabki Lagi Hai is about people screwed up as much by the system as by their own follies, but the final impact of the film is not as gloomy as the title might suggest."[8] Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India praised the acting performances but criticized the film and gave the film a rating of 1.5 out of 5.[3] Kusumita Das of Deccan Chronicle gave the film a rating of 1.5 out of 5 saying that, "The makers of Yahaan Sabki Lagi Hai had an idea, but perhaps didn’t know how best to go about executing it. The story has pace but falters when it comes to substance."[9]
