The film received three stars out of five from Ronak Kotecha and he described the film as "Madam Chief Minister gets our vote for being an entertaining political drama, set in the crime-infested corridors of power."[6]
The movie’s portrayal of the lead was criticized for not choosing a Dalit woman. The actor responded “regrettable and a completely unintentional oversight”.[7][8]
