Reception

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 1 star out of 5, writing ″Chander Behl's direction has its limitations due to a half-convincing script. Dialogues too seem straight out of yesteryear films. Musically irmal Pawar a mediocre score. JANANI has two powerful performances in the form of Bhagyashree and Mohnish Bahl. Both seasoned actors, they infuse life in their roles with solid portrayals. Ayesha Julka goes overboard at times. Aman Verma is passable. Vineet and Sonica are able in their debut film. On the whole, JANANI has nothing to lure the family audiences, its target audience. At the box-office, this one's a non-starter!″
