    Film review ·

    Overall, you may like Luv U Soniyo more for its comedy than the romance. It's all very predictable and sort of lame in some areas. Considering the fact that there are 11 movie releases today, this may not figure in your top five.
  2. Times Of India

    Film review ·

    The film sends out a good message to youngsters like 'family comes first', 'respect your elders', etc. It has its share of sweet moments, but overall, as a rom-com, it fails to leave a mark.

    Film review ·

    Love triumphs in the end but the journey leading to that moment could have been more entertaining. In conclusion, for a Friday consumed by below-average releases, 'Luv U Soniyo' is just another happy addition.

    Film review ·

    On the whole, Luv U Soniyo is a half-hearted attempt which fails to strike a chord in people's hearts. At the box-office, it will go completely unnoticed and its poor start will only add to its terrible tale of woes.

    Film review ·

    The journey here is absolutely bereft of drama, excitement, surprise and ultimate satisfaction. One doesn`t know if debutant director Joe Rajan meant the central romance to be so linear, languorous and shockproof. But that`s the way it is.
