Reception

Anub George of The Times of India rated 2.0/5 and wrote "London Misal is a no-brainer that suffers due to a predictable plot."^[6] Film Information noted that Jalindar Gangaram Kumbhar's direction is mediocre. The music is unremarkable, with the title song being just decent. Sai-Piyush's background score lacks impact. Uday Singh Mohite's cinematography is considered average, while the art direction is appropriate. Editing by Manish Shirke could have benefited from a tighter approach.^[3]
