Reception
Vibhor from Freepress Journal wrote a review with title "It’s better to go to sleep than watch this". He expanded: "The best part about this one hour forty minute film is that it is for one hour forty minutes only. It would have been a real task to sit through another five minutes of this snoozefest."[3] Archika Khurana from Times of India wrote "Raat Baaki Hai circles around a murder investigation and the existing lives of the lead characters which could have been an interesting watch but it lacks the right elements to entertain. Despite some known faces and convincing acts, it comes across as a not-so-thrilling suspense drama."[4] Inext wrote about the film "Raat Baaki Hai claims to be a suspense thriller drama but it is not suspense thriller from any angle. When you can predict what's going to happen next only by seeing the face of artists, you don't call such films thrillers but scam."[5] Tatsam Mukherjee from Firstpost stated the film as "a simple murder mystery with no element of intrigue or entertainment".[6]
