Hindustan Times' Rishabh Suri, in his review of 'Ulajh', said that Janhvi Kapoor "makes a case for 'talented nepo babies'" in the film. "Ulajh, as a film, is that in-your-face product placement, selling you the actor in Janhvi...Why the film keeps ticking forward is because of its supporting cast," Suri added. The film also stars Gulshan Devaiah and Roshan Mathew.
