Jabarkan Critical reception dari Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi dalam bahasa melayu

Upon release, the film received positive reviews. Robert Abele of the Los Angeles Times calls Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi an "agreeably amusing comedy/romance/musical" noting that, "the magnetic Khan is a skilled enough comic actor with his physical transformation — like a Peter Sellers-ish recessive turning into a Jerry Lewis extrovert — that believing Taani wouldn't notice isn't difficult". Rachel Saltz of The New York Times describes it as "soft, sweet and slow, in the words of one of its songs. It deftly blends comedy, the ruling tone of the new Bollywood, with melodrama, the ruling tone of the old." Manish Gajjar of the BBC gave the film 4 out of 5 stars noting that, "Shah Rukh Khan makes you laugh and cry as the nerdy-looking, clumsy, bespectacled Surinder and the all hip and happening Raj. A true professional in his own right, Khan breezes through his dialogues during the emotional and comic scenes." Frank Lovece of Film Journal International argues that it is "smarter and more self-aware of its rom-com contrivances than most Hollywood movies" and notes that while "the movie's cleverness eventually devolves into a simplistic Harlequin-Romance-for-males wish-fulfillment about beauty and the geek, it's a very well-acted variation on a Hollywood staple." Critic and author Maitland McDonagh of MissFlickChick.com stated that the film, "has been dismissed in some quarters as self-conscious and artificial, a coyly self-referential reworking of outdated movie tropes a la Todd Haynes' Far From Heaven, but it works for me in a way that most contemporary Hollywood romcoms don't."

Some critics did not give the film very favorable reviews. Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN was critical of the film, giving it two out of five stars and stating that "Aditya Chopra's return to direction after eight years is marked by a flawed script, which in turn spawns a disappointing film. Where's the smart dialogue and the spirited characters that defined his debut film, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge? There's no trace of either in this film [...] the problem then, at the root of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, is that much like those artificial sets in the film, the emotions too are contrived."  Derek Elley of Variety argues that the film has "a huge, hollow center that sinks the project early on [...] A paper-thin script drags itself to the finish line amid tiresome mugging by Khan, a huge credibility gap (she never recognizes him without his glasses and mustache?) and a blah score with only one showstopper (featuring five famous actresses)."

Beberapa pengkritik telah terus memerhatikan persamaan antara filem ini dan superhero filem. Khalid Mohamed, Hindustan Times, memberikan filem tiga setengah daripada lima bintang yang menyatakan bahawa Suri "adalah saudara jiwa mousy Clark Kent-merangkap-Superman" yang "membuat anda ketawa dan terisak-isak seli." Mayank Shekhar dari Mumbai Mirror memberikan filem tiga daripada lima bintang dan berhujah bahawa "[] orang yang sama, berlawanan kembar, biasanya barangan super-hero filem; jenis Clark KentSuperman, Peter Parker-Spiderman dan sebagainya. Anda keseluruhannya berasa hilang dalam jentik fantasi ini, kerana untuk kebanyakan keadaan, ia dibina di sekitar sesuatu yang begitu intim dan benar. ia akan menjadi lebih mudah untuk melakukan perjalanan ke negara-negara asing di seluruh jauh diambil situasi dengan wira palsu"  In addition, Sudish Kamath of The Hindu states that while Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi could have been an interesting art film exploring the dynamics of an arranged marriage, the director instead "treats this character type like Sam Raimi would treat Spider-Man [...] Superhero ‘Raj’ slips into costume and out, complains how it gets uncomfortable around the crotch, to win over his Mary Jane with not much saving-the-world business to keep him busy. But while Spidey does it for a bigger reason than just MJ, Raj’s sole motivation is to stalk his wife and play out his fantasy as somebody else. His obsession with his alter-ego reaches new heights when he wants his wife to cheat on the real him — the goofy Surinder Saini who starts off well."
