Do Deewane is just not deewana enough. When will we have our own Madly, Deeply, or is that too much to ask from sanskritik Bollywood which can't even name body-parts now?


Chaturvedi and Thakur carry a slow, well-meaning film that coasts on goodwill.

Critic consensus
Critical reception for Do Deewane Seher Mein is mixed, leaning modestly positive, with most scores clustered in the 60–70 range and several dissenters pulling it down. The most consistent praise centers on the lead performances of Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur, and the film's quiet, grounded approach to depicting imperfect, emotionally scarred characters. However, multiple critics flag the same core weaknesses: sluggish pacing, overstretched runtime, thin conflicts, and writing that defaults to predictable beats rather than trusting its own premise. A handful of reviewers found the film too inert and uneventful to sustain engagement, despite acknowledging its modest ambitions.

Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur shine in a cute, relatable love story where imperfections win.
Film review
By the time Shashank and Roshni tentatively find their way toward each other, the film has quietly won you over. Sweet, observant and emotionally grounded, this is a romance that embraces the ordinary and in doing so, finds something rather special.
Film review
Do Deewane Seher Mein doesn't provoke dramatic emotional highs, but it tenderly explores a grounded love story that grows on you.
Film review
Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur starrer and Ravi Udyawar directorial film is unique in many ways and has many lessons to learn from.
Film review
Do Deewane Seher Mein explores a love story rooted in imperfections and emotional scars. The film highlights how childhood wounds influence adult relationships and healing.
Film review
Some films are not bad or disappointing per se, but need to be judiciously trimmed in their runtime to make for a good watch. The core idea is worthy; the execution needed a more practical approach.
Film review
Ever so slightly Basu Chatterjee! Only sad part about this sweet, simple romcom is you'll wait for it to drop on Netflix.

Do Deewane Seher Mein is a love story that asks you to pause and embrace imperfections, anchored by solid performances from Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur.
Film review
In a time when Bollywood romance often swings between spectacle and cynicism, Do Deewane Seher Mein attempts to map modern love through two Mumbai-based socially awkward millennials navigating insecurities.
Film review
Mrunal Thakur and Siddhant Chaturvedi's urban romance goes nowhere.
Film review
The film uses the romcom template, but hampers itself with a plodding pace, flimsy conflicts and an almost absent sense of humour. Instead it's saddled with the most boring characters in a dull story.
Film review
The concept that could have been theoretically profound stretches across two and a half hours on screen and ultimately becomes a tedious experience. As a romantic comedy, the film could not be sufficiently 'deewane'.
“যে ধারণাটি তাত্ত্বিকভাবে গভীর হতে পারত, সেটিই আড়াই ঘণ্টার পর্দাজুড়ে বিস্তৃত হয়ে, শেষ পর্যন্ত এক ক্লান্তিকর অভিজ্ঞতায় পরিণত হয়েছে। রোম্যান্টিক কমেডি হিসেবে ছবিটি যথেষ্ট 'দিওয়ানা' হতে পারেনি।”Film review
Do Deewane Seher Mein is a flawless love story. It stumbles with pacing and could have benefited from tighter editing. However, it may not soar, but it gently settles into your heart.
Film review
Though shot tastefully, the screenwriting and treatment are bland and overstretched. In the absence of solid material, Siddhant and Mrunal fail to generate any tangible frisson. When the writing doesn't fully trust its premise of introspective character study, it leans on convenient emotional beats or predictable insecurities rather than letting the awkwardness breathe longer. Too quiet, too safe!
