SpotboyE.com rated the movie 3.5 stars. Editor Vickey Lalwani wrote, “The film is a treasure in today's times when many parents present themselves as uber cool but are still dakiyanusi if their children show deviant sexual behaviour. Some films really slap you on your cheek and ask you to wake up, ELKDTAL is one such- but at the same time, it plants a kiss on your other cheek. Dignity, and I get no word other than that, is written all over ELKDTAL--- a quality which most of us have unarguably (and of course sadly) just lost especially in recent times.”
