Reception

Love U...Mr. Kalakaar! received mixed reviews from Indian critics. Nikhat Kazmi of the Times of India gave it 2.5 out of five stars and wrote in her review, "The film does have a sweetness that grows on you and seasoned actors like Ram Kapoor and Madhoo add a dignity to their roles. The love birds Tusshar and Amrita are in sync with each other, but the film is so predictable and so long, it loses impact. Surely, a bit of reinvention is the need of the hour for Rajshri Inc too. After all, it's a fast and furious world we live in today.".[2] Preeti Arora of Rediff found the movie unimpressive and wrote, "The Rajshri fans who thrive on old world love stories might just enjoy this. Simple and uncomplicated crafted in true Barjatya fashion. Or if you like the idea of Tusshar Kapoor in a lead romantic role. There aren't too many of these films being made these days. Thankfully!"[3] Subhash K Jha of Bollywood Hungama wrote, "It is Harindranath Chattopadhyay who said, 'It's very difficult to be simple'. It takes a lot of guts to make a film as simple, honest and transparent as Love U...Mr Kalaakar in this day and age when Munni and Sheila are happily letting it all hang out and Ragini's love is lost in the lust and greed of an MMS mess."[4]
