Reception

A critic from The Times of India rated the film 3.5/5 out of 5 and wrote, "All these diverse stories essentially focus on similar emotions: loneliness, love, pain, and above all, hope. To sum it up, ‘Ankahi Kahaniya' is an enjoyable and insightful watch". A critic from The Indian Express rated the film 2/5 and wrote, "The anthology was supposed to take us into the not-so-glamorous world of heartbreak, and a life beyond rose tinted glasses. Ankahi Kahaniyan evokes no emotion, none at all".
