Reviews
Ranjib Mazumdar, veteran journalist and screen-writer in his review of the film wrote, "Rajat Kapoor shows he has the able shoulders to carry us through the autumn of the patriarch, but Kharkongor’s script fails him, refusing to go into the labyrinth of inner turmoil, and trying awakening." He also wrote that Mantra resembles Zoya Akhtar’s Dil Dhadakne Do. [4]
