## Critical reception

Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama rated 3 out of 5 and wrote "Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety is a rather loaded affair with as many as eight songs filling in the proceedings. Majority of songs end up working quite well, hence making it a wholesome winning affair." Devansh Sharma of Firstpost wrote "Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety boasts of a lot of music, but most of it is borrowed. Thus, T-Series only traverses tested waters and churns out songs mostly below its unrivaled potential. But the songs are sure to pull audiences into theatres as well as drive the narrative of what seems to be an entertaining romantic comedy."
