Reception

The Times of India stated, "Main Hoon Aparajita is quite a run-of-the-mill saga. There are unrealistic situations created to mount the drama. However, Shweta Tiwari manages to hold the show and shines in it."[8]

Pinkvilla mentioned, "Playing a mother comes naturally to Shweta Tiwari and there's solid conviction. Manav Gohil's portrayal of a male chauvinist character will make you hate him for acting so well."[9]
