Reception

Suman Tarafdar of Filmfare rated the film two stars and gave a critical review of both the film and Kajol's performance. According to critic Arati Koppar, writing for the same publication, the film's ending was borrowed from "some low-budget" Telugu-language films. Savera R Someshwar of Rediff.com stated ″Most films have their moments. This one, sadly, doesn't. Everything is forced. There is not one moment in the film that I could call funny, or touching. Or anything. The twins meeting each other for the first time—thanda [cold]. The parent-child reunion scenes—thanda. Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM rated the film 2/5, writing "On the whole, KUCH KHATTI KUCH MEETHI is a welcome change from the usual bang, bang, shoot'em up flicks produced in the recent times. The film has its share of flaws, but the fact cannot be ruled out that it is a feel-good film. The film has a genuine buoyancy that leaves a viewer happy."
