Good Newwz opened to mixed reviews on December 27. Reviewing the film for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote: "Besides perpetuating the myth of motherhood being the be all and end all of a woman's life, Good Newwz peddles egregiously regressive notions about gender roles in marriage, divisions of class and education, and the nature versus nurture conflict."
Good Newwz has been directed by Raj Mehat and produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions.
