The review of the film on ABP Live reads: “The catharsis in this three act film is well-worth a watch and for that reason ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar’ can be seen as a family entertainer despite its many problems and pseudo-feminism. There is an end-credits sequence where for some 4 minutes, even as critics you’re hooked to what’s happening on screen- an ideal life story plays out- an in-laws family and the most loving partner in the world doing everything to make their daughter-in-law feel at home and everyone is supremely happy.”
Besides Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor, ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar’ also stars Anubhav Singh Bassi, Dimple Kapadia, and Boney Kapoor.
