In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave Badhaai Ho 3.5 stars out of 5. "This is a family drama with a difference whose appeal stems from the confident and steady manner in which it unfolds. Badhaai Ho is relatable despite the fact that it deals with a situation that isn't all that common, in real life or in cinema. It is certainly worth a visit to the multiplex," he wrote.
In Badhaai Ho, Neena Gupta and Gajraj Rao play a middle-aged couple with two grown up sons. The news of Neena Gupta's third pregnancy is the main plot of the story. Ayushmann Khurrana plays their elder son while Sanya Malhotra stars as his love interest. Surekha Sikri and Shardul Rana are also part of the film directed by Amit Sharma.
Badhaai Ho clashed at the box office with Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra's Namaste England.
