Reception
editDevesh Sharma of Filmfare gave the film two and a half out of five stars and wrote, "Ishq Vishk Rebound starts off as being a frothy romantic comedy but then loses its fizz midway. Watch it if you have a yen for rom coms and have to catch every such outing…"[18]
Bhavna Agarwal of India Today gave the film two and a half out of five stars and wrote, "The major problem with the film is not that it makes rebound seem 'frivolous'. But, it makes a half-hearted attempt or resorts to tokenism to entertain. It is funny and cheesy, yes! But all of this without a soul, feels like a wasted opportunity."[19]
Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film two and a half out of five stars and wrote, "The best way to approach Ishq Vishk Rebound as a viewer is not to expect the world from it. At least parts of it might then pleasantly surprise you."[20]
Pratikshya Mishra of The Quint wrote, "Ishq Vishk Rebound is not a horrible movie – it has some of its better moments. There are times when the dialogues get an unexpected laugh out of you even as they remind you how inconsistent the writing has been."[21]
Box Office
editThe film which released on 21 June 2024 collected est. 1.20 cr on its first day. [22] The film got a limited release in only 700 theatres across India. [23]
