In his review for Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, which marks Sonam and Anil Kapoor's first film together, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote: "Anil Kapoor, as always, gets completely into the swing of things and livens up the film with his presence. Sonam, well served by the angularities of a screen persona that keeps cockiness at bay, projects a convincing combination of vulnerability and assertion in a way that only she can."
Meanwhile in an interview with news agency IANS, Anil Kapoor said: "Apart from the beautiful script, Sonam is the main reason why I did Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, we waited to do the right film together and not just share screen space as a gimmick. And I am very impressed by her dedication."
Directed by Shelly Dhar Chopra, Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is the story of a conservative Punjabi family grappling with a young woman's same-sex romance.
