Reception
Rishabh Deb writing for The Times of India gave 2.5 rating out of 5, and noted that the story of Lata Bhagwan Kare comes through "quite effectively on the silver screen".[1] He further added that "several scenes in the film will have a long-lasting impact on the audience. Since the characters are real, the impact becomes stronger. The struggle, pain and instances from Lata's life are so real that one doesn't mind minor glitches in dubbing and cinematography. Surprisingly, Lata and all other cast have done a convincing job playing and re-living the same emotions on the screen. The film will have a deep impact on the audience and it is a must-watch for those who want to know about the inspiring woman Lata Bhagwan Kare".[1]
