Anusha Sundar of OTTPlay gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote, "Lucky The Superstar is a light-hearted film which wants to take big steps. But its little feet and big ambitions do not go together. A film that has heart in the right place, but takes the wrong leap of faith". Akshay Kumar of Cinema Express gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote, "Lucky doesn't go all in on its wackiness. With the writing trying to build a house with bricks, a few walls end up being built with cards, and the film ends up as a mildly engaging watch, when it could have been much more". == References ==
