The Times of India gave the film 4 out of 5 stars and said that, "Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is the sweetest heartbreak that Bollywood has conjured in a long, long time.".

Bollywood hungama gave the film 4 out of 5 stars saying, "This take on love is refined, smart, lively and thoroughly pleasing thanks to its characters, conversations and the inherent humor".

NDTV gave 4 out of 5 stars and quoted "I'll play on the film's USP for this review and keep it short and crisp. No extra lines. But, just like you need to read this, you need to go and watch the film."

DNA India highly recommended the film and too gave 4 stars out of 5 concluding, "All in all, Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a delightful film that keeps getting better along the way, and ends fabulously. Clocking under two hours, the film is a breezy watch that will leave you with a smile."

MiD DAY gave 3.5 stars out of 5, concluding "The climax is brave, unpredictable and real. Go watch! Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a small packet of joy."

India Today too gave 3.5 stars out of 5 saying, "Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a gentle little film, where even the regulation song with Americans dancing to Bollywood music in the middle of Vegas don't look so bad."

 Daily Bhaskar gave the film three out of five stars, and concluded saying, "Overall, Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a typical popcorn entertainment with super-amazing climax which puts it in a different league altogether."

Rediff.com too gave the film 3 stars out of 5, and commented that Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is neither on the epic side like Dharma Productions' great, grand ancestors nor weighed down by an overload of pop culture references of those that define the genre.

Koimoi.com too gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, saying Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is an entertaining and enjoyable fare for the city audience.

CNN-IBN gave it 3 out of 5 stars and said "Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a narrative that unfolds mainly through dialogue, and the lighter moments come at you as the odd couple gets to know each other. The humor hits the mark many times and falls flat occasionally, but the movie doesn’t grate because the characters aren’t trying too hard to be cute."

On the contrary, The Economic Times gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5, and said "It's perfect in whatever it offers. But what it offers is quite average in volume."

The Indian Express gave 2.5 stars out of 5 sand said "The film passes by pleasantly enough past all its expected roadsigns, providing a smile and an occasional chuckle but making you wish for more newness".

Yahoo! gave 2 stars out of 5, saying "this film doesn’t subscribe to every cliché associated with this auspicious day for getting Main and Tu to become Hum."

NDTV India also gave only 2.5 stars to the Movie


FINAL VERDICT: EMAET is an average watch with a pinch of  high level marketing offering little value to a mutiplex ticket.
