Reception

Critical response

Hum Tum Shabana received negative reviews all throughout. Preeti Arora of Rediff.com said, "... an unashamed attempt to ape the Golmaal series, Hum Tum Shabana is a rudderless ship which simultaneously endeavors to straddle many genres. And fails miserably," and gave it half a star out of 5 stars.^[2] The Indian Express rated it half a star as well.^[3] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama giving it 1.5 out of 5 stars, said that it has a funny first half but a disappointing second hour.^[4] Nupur Barua of fullhyd.com lamented the fact that Sagar Ballary, the director, "seems to prefer the Golmaal and Dhamaal styles, rather than that of his first film Bheja Fry." fullhyd.com rated the movie 4/10.^[5] The Times Of India's Nikhat Kazmi wasn't positive about the film either, and rated it 2/5.^[6]
