In an NDTV review, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave Loveyapa 2.5 out of 5 stars.
He wrote, “Loveyapa makes no great demands on our grey cells but it isn't, at the same time, the kind of Hindi film that lets you watch it without having to bank upon your brain. As it hurtles along, the film conveys a bunch of pertinent notions about daunting impediments to finding, nurturing and holding on to love and trust in a hyperconnected, fast-moving world where 'truth' is a heartless, shape-shifting, frequently judgement-clouding monster.”
Loveyapa marks the big-screen debut of Sridevi's daughter, Khushi Kapoor, and Aamir Khan's son, Junaid Khan.
Earlier, Khushi Kapoor appeared in Netflix's The Archies, alongside Suhana Khan, Vedang Raina, and Agastya Nanda. Meanwhile, Junaid made his acting debut in Netflix's Maharaj, directed by Siddharth P. Malhotra, which was released in June 2024.
