Reception

A critic from The Times of India wrote that "There are a couple of one liners (out-and-out adult, mind you) and moments that manage to make you laugh, somewhat. But then it’s all in flashes, primarily in the first half".^[8] Mansha Rastogi of Nowrunning wrote, "With hackneyed writing, garbled storyline and cliched dialogues and jokes, 3 Bachelors is devoid of reasons for one to watch it".^[9] A critic from BollywoodMDB wrote that "In the name of comedy, a dull film. To watch it in theatres is wastage of time and money!"^[10]
