Critical response
Vees Mhanje Vees film received mixed reviews from critics. Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "Being an NFDC production, one expects a lot from 'Vees Mhanje Vees' but alas, this is just an old wine in a new bottle".Rahi Gaikwad of The Hindu wrote "However, mere good intentions are not enough to redeem the inadequacies of a facile plotline, staid dialogues, and some poorly executed scenes".
Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror wrote "Overall, the film feels like a missed opportunity of showing a significant story, highlighting an important and unusual social issue. As it stands, its a marginal success story for a niche audience".
Soumitra Pote of Maharashtra Times gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "However, it is felt that if a little more work had been done on the level of story and screenplay, the drama would have come out more".
