Meanwhile, film critic Saibal Chatterjee, in an NDTV review, gave Mr & Mrs Mahi 2 out of 5 stars. He said, “Mr & Mrs Mahi, at least parts of it, might have worked better had it stuck to a comic vein of the kind that it strikes when a disgruntled Mahendra makes reels to apprise the world of his role in the late-blooming Mahima’s rapid ascent.”
Saibal Chatterjee continued, “Mr & Mrs Mahi never rises above the humdrum although it does have elements that render it passable as a relationship drama set against the backdrop of cricket.”
Released on May 31, Mr & Mrs Mahi has been backed by Dharma Productions and Zee Studios.
