Reception

of IndiaFM gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5, writing ″Sush tries hard to infuse life in her character. She is effective at places, but tends to get theatrical at times. Shiney does a decent job, although the screenplay gives him little scope to go beyond a set of expressions. Moushumi Chatterjee is okay as the mother, but hams as the twin-sister. The get-up also doesn't suit her age. Kim Sharma is wasted. The child artist, Julian, is wonderful. Seema Biswas, as the cop, is alright. Ravi Gosain gets no scope. On the whole, ZINDAGGI ROCKS just doesn't rock. At the box-office, it's bound to go unnoticed. Gullu Singh of Rediff.com gave the film 1 star, writing ″Sushmita Sen and Shiney Ahuja do their best to save the film but the script and dialogues are so shoddy that it is impossible for them to do so.″
