The film may be erratic in parts, but its entertainment quotient is delightfully high for a film tackling a clash between conservatism and freedom, between tradition and modernity.

Ayushmann Khurrana jabs at homophobia in delightful film. Ayushmann Khurrana stars in an important film that talks about an important subject conveyed in the simplest manner without sounding preachy at any given point.

Ayushmann Khurrana’s delightful comedy is a giant leap for LGBTQI+ representation in Bollywood. Hitesh Kewalya makes canny use of popular culture and brings a queer romance into mainstream Hindi cinema.

All in all, 'SMZS' will give small-town parents the much needed nudge, and maybe, in the distant future, they will have the strength to accept their offsprings for who they are. But, for now, watch it for the performances and the 'chaska' of love, with two men pouring their hearts out for the world to see and accept.

Pallabi Dey Purkayastha - Times Of India
A likeable, well-performed comedy of cultural significance. An entertaining, dignified and semi-balanced – if slightly overzealous – rom-com of commercial significance.

Rahul Desai - FilmCompanion
Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan is not so much a homosexual romance as it is an exuberant appeal imploring conservative Indian parents to accept and respect their children's choices, gay or straight. Ayushmann Khurrana and Jitendra Kumar cut an adorable picture in a movie that is as comfortable about their sexuality as they are in the film.

Sukanya Verma - rediff
A well-intentioned but clunky blend of social issue, emotion and laughter. The burden of being the first mainstream film to tackle men in love seems to weigh heavily on the makers. Humor becomes a constant crutch.
