A well-paced plot and good direction keep the story moving at a pace that does not require too much analysis or thinking. For those who enjoy stories about domestic abuse and kitchen politics, this is for you."[12] A positive appraisal was published in Youlin Magazine[13] and PakistaniCinema.net.[14]
