Reception

Critical reception

Medium Spicy film received mixed reviews from critics. Payal Shekhar Naik of Hindustan Times wrote "However, the grip of the actors on the boring story remains tight. And that is the best part of the movie".[8] A Reviewer of Lokmat says "A must watch film for its attempt at a commentary on relationships by bringing characters of different temperaments together and for the excellent performances of the actors".[9] Manisha Lakhe of Ott Play gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "Marathi cinema has raised expectations by gems like ,Court, Killa ,and even ,The Disciple,. This film is not your usual Rom-Com in the kitchen, and neither is it high Drama of the Ginsu knife, but it’s like the title: medium spicy, comfort food of the soul".[10] Jaydeep Pathak of Maharashtra Times gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "In short, a 'medium spicy' dish moves in a 'medium' rhythm. She is definitely delicious. However, the whole game depends on developing a 'taste' for it".[11] A Reviewer of Pune Mirror gave the film 4 stars out of 5 and says "‘Medium Spicy’ is a film that proves the saying ‘golden days of Marathi cinema are back.’ It handles an essential and complex topic in a beautiful way".[12]
