Reception

Critic Taran Adarsh of '' Bollywood Hungama'' wrote that "On the whole, ''MUMBAI MIRROR'' is for those who relish masala movies. Especially for the single screen circuit". A critic from '' Rediff.com'' wrote that "This is a terrible mishap of a film that doesn't hold a mirror to society, or the city, but rather stares at it with bloodshot eyes and a dagger in hand". A critic from '' The Times of India'' wrote that "Ankush Bhatt’s slick flick grittily exposes the nexus between seedy cops and sleazy bars barons, albeit with a lot of ''Dabangg''-isms". A critic from ''Koimoi'' wrote that "''Mumbai Mirror'' is a terrible mistake. If you want to laugh at the utter nonsense going on on-screen, you might as well sit through it".
