Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM gave the film three out of five stars, writing, "The result: Laughter. Fun. Paisa-vasool entertainment. The drama gets a little more amusing thanks to the great chemistry between Amitabh Bachchan and Sanjay Dutt. Dutt is superb as the don. This is amongst his finest performances. Ajay Devgan looks ill at ease in light scenes. Also, he looks pale at places. Aishwarya Rai looks gorgeous and delivers a freewheeling performance". Syed Firdaus Ashraf of Rediff gave a negative review, writing, "The film fails to hold the attention, thanks mainly due to the implausible plot. The digs at the Mumbai police force, however, are entertaining. Among the performances, Amitabh Bachchan and Sanjay Dutt keep the viewers engaged in the beginning but they irritate post-intermission. Aishwarya Rai does not have too meaty a part. All she does is attend dance class and fret at the thought of Munnabhai wanting to marry her. Ajay Devgan is a disaster. His underwritten character fails to do him justice. Paresh Rawal in the role of a Police Commissioner is wasted too". The Hindu stated "If you can overlook the unreality of mainstream Hindi cinema and its elements (for instance the overly colourful sets and décor) this is a film you might just enjoy. Amitabh again proves that comedy is also his forte. Ajay looks good but is not as effective as Sunjay Dutt who makes a delightful don, clumsy and spirited, a role most well done. As for Aishwarya, she does not have much to do except look gorgeous". Manish Gajjar from BBC said "Hum Kisise Kum Nahin might just end up to be the best of the lot as far as Bollywood comedies are concerned. In this flick, director David Dhawan gives his best to bring out the laughter as it progresses through the story. Amitabh Bachchan as Dr Rastogi he is once again at his comic best. The same applies to Sanjay Dutt, its very refreshing to see that side of him, compared with the macho image which he always portrays on screen. As for Aishwarya, she looks beautiful as ever and excels in the peppy song sequences. But its Ajay Devgan who surprises us with his versatile comic performance, which he enacts with great ease". == Soundtrack ==
