Sarfira is Akshay Kumar's 150th film. Sharing a special post on the film's release date, the actor wrote on Instagram, "Sarfira means crazy and looking back I feel I would've been crazy had I not done this film. So I'm glad I did. This journey began almost 3 years back and it's finally out for you all to witness and hopefully cherish. Sarfira is the story of a dream and the stubbornness to fulfil that dream, something we all can learn from. I'm so proud to be a part of this film and glad that Sarfira is my 150th film. I hope you get a chance to catch it cinemas soon. Sarfira is now all yours."

In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film 2 stars out of 5 and he wrote, "Sarfira does not exactly soar above the clouds although Akshay Kumar plunges headlong into a role that has far more meat than many of the other roles that he has played in recent years. The hammy bits are hard to ignore, but Sarfira does have moments that allow the star to demonstrate his wares to a greater extent than he usually does."
