Reception

A critic from The New Indian Express opined that "Kicchu gives an insight into deforestation, and its effects on people, but somehow, on the whole, a sensitive subject like this one seems to lack depth". Guruprasad D. M. of Deccan Herald wrote that "Even with good intentions, Kicchu is dull, cliched and too flat on emotions". Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India rated the film 3 out of 5 and stated that "Kichchu might not be a drama that keeps you in the edge of your seat, but it has its heart set in the right place".
