Reception

Komal Nahta of India Syndicate wrote, "On the whole, Khushi remains a dull and dreary love story and will have an unhappy and short innings at the box-office. Although designed as a film for the youth, it will be rejected even by them. A heavy loser". Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama rated the film 2/5 and wrote, "On the whole, KHUSHI has several engaging moments to appeal to the youth and family audiences".
