The unique pairing in Laxman Utekar's romantic comedy helped it gain a lot of buzz. Vicky Kaushal and Sara Ali Khan provide outstanding performances in this film.

ABPLive review of the movie reads, “The story of 'Zara Hatke Zara Bachke' is set in Indore and looks well designed too, especially with the use of Indori lingo, Poha jokes and whatnot. All characters fit into the middle-class setup of the small township. It is a light-hearted comedy film at face value. An entertainer that will bring audiences to theatre, is a paisa vasool weekend watch, for the sake of good old times when romantic comedy dramas were done right.”
