Nitika Desai of Apun Ka Choice gave a rating of 3 out of 5 stars. She wrote "'Asambhav' is a film that sticks to the beaten and worn-out Bollywood stereotypes. Over-dramatic dialogues, deliberately forced songs and inflated action sequences make it quite a predictable and stodgy fare." Subhash K. Jha of IANS wrote "Asambhav is arguably the only mainstream film ever with no mother-figure on the hectic horizon. But absence of melodrama cannot in itself be a virtue unless it is compounded by a moist quality in the overall design of storytelling."
