Reception

The film received mixed response from critics who praised the acting performance of Anirban Bhattacharya but criticised the direction and plot. In The Times of India, Srijoy Mukherjee wrote "Bibaho Obhijaan is a fun and light-hearted romp", but also criticised it saying "the humour is shallow and picks on easy targets".^[7]

In Firstpost, Bhaskar Chattopadhyay called this film "An irredeemable offering despite some rare laugh-out-loud moments", stating "Unfortunately, for most of its two-hour duration, Bibaho Obhijaan is simply not funny enough". But he also praised Anirban Bhattacharya's acting stating "There would not be an ounce of exaggeration to say that if he would not have been in the film, the film would have fared very, very poorly. The young actor single-handedly saves the film from sinking and is clearly its biggest star".^[8]
