Reception

Critical response

Kalpeshraj Kubal of The Times of India gave the film 3/5 stars and wrote, "Jhimma 2 is a story of emotions that also shows a mirror to the viewers, presenting a side of their reality and making them think about the things in life that matter."[4] Tanvi Lad of Film Companion gave a positive review writing, "It stands out among most female-centric movies because its powerful storytelling doesn’t come across as a lecture on feminism." Lad opined that the film has humour and "serves a veritable buffet of feelings" and further praised the soundtrack writing, "The music composed by Amitraj is soothing." Concluding Lad lauded the director, crew and cast writing, "Dhome, his crew and the cast deserves a round of applause for telling a story that is compelling without being preachy, which delivers joy and laughter while emphasising the need for us to introspect as a society."[14] Akhilesh Nerlekar of Loksatta also praised the director, crew and cast. Nerlekar wrote, "A very good story, an equally gripping screenplay and without any pretense of teaching people, they have presented a fun, interesting and equally simple yet thought provoking film." He opined that "Satyajit Sriram's cinematography has come together very well". He appreciated the soundtrack by Amitraj, saying, "[music] brings a different life to the film." Concluding Nerlekar said, "If you want to enjoy a unique Marathi masterpiece that is classy, entertaining and brings tears to your eyes, then it must be watched.[15] Film Information in its review praised overall film and believed that the film "is a surefire hit because it offers wholesome entertainment for the old and the young, classes and masses, girls and boys, men and women."[16]
