The film has not only performed decently at the domestic box office but also in the overseas market. The film has minted a total of Rs 45.36 crore in worldwide collections, according to the film website Bollywood Hungama.
The film has been appreciated by critics for being daring enough to tak about a subject as sensitive as gay marriages. Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#OneWordReview... #ShubhMangalZyadaSaavdhan: BOLD. Brave. Gutsy. Fearless. Dares to address Homophobia... Fun, humour, emotions, #SMZS has it all... Kudos Mr Content #AyushmannKhurrana for a courageous decision, #JitendraKumar, #Gajraj, #Neena excel. #SMZSReview" Adarsh gave the movie a 3.5 star rating.
