Reception

Critical Reception

Poorna Banerjee of The Times of India rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "With romance blooming in the second part, the story slows down considerably, and then moves towards a slightly drawn-out climax. There are a few loose ends and absurd situations that could have been better summed up or tightened at the end. But the palpable chemistry between Prosenjit and Anirban is a rare treat, and definitely one of the main reasons why Dawshom Awbotaar is an entertaining watch this festive season."[24] Shaunak Sanyal of Ei Samay rated the film 4.5 out of 5 stars and wrote " The main thrust of Dawshom Awbotaar is his story and the acting of all the main characters is also excellent. But where the noise is, is the script. Like the rest of the movies in the cop universe, this one also has a lot of poetry."[25] Anandabazar Patrika also reviewed the film.[26]

Agnivo Niyogi of Telegraph India wrote " The chemistry between Probir and Bijoy forms the backbone of Dawshom Awbotaar. Jisshu Sengupta stands out as the maniacal killer who exudes a sense of unnerving unpredictability and menace. Jaya Ahsan shines too. The songs composed by Anupam Roy and the background score by Indraadip Dasgupta elevate the narrative, evoking nostalgia and providing a soulful backdrop to the story. Yet, compared to Baishe Srabon, the plot of Dawshom Awbotaar comes across as simplistic.[27] Sandipta Bhanja of Sangbad Pratidin rated the film 4.5 out of 5 stars.[28][29] Premankur Biswas of The Indian Express rated the film 1 out of 5 stars and wrote " One can say that the actors are committed to their roles, but what does that even mean when the script is as weak as this."[30][31]

Box office

The movie has earned more than 2 crores within the first 3 days of release.[32]
