Reception
editIn a review in Prothom Alo, film director and critics Motin Rahman called the film a "healthy tolerable presentation". He writes, "Shakib Khan's makeup in the separation scene could have brought more depressing makeup. The photographer could have taken the scene of the last telephone conversation between Pori Moni and Shakib Khan from a more realistic and psychological point of view. Despite having lots of shots and scenes, the film has been hampered by cinematic mood, momentum or dialectical conflict due to lack of editing types. He praised Pori Moni's performance in the film and said that, "Pori Moni's performance is amazing! The director could have brought out the acting of Shakib Khan. Film's protagonist and a lover—there is a kind of subtle transformation between these two characters. "Aro Bhalobashbo Tomay" is a healthy tolerable presentation from two or four other films stuffed with materials to destroy our society and culture.[20]
