Reception

[edit]

Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "2K Love Story wants to say something about modern friendships but gets caught between its youthful ambitions and conventional storytelling. The ideas are there — they're just still buffering."[32] Anusha Sundar of OTTPlay gave 2/5 stars and wrote "2K Love Story is a flatlined and skewed take on modern day friendships and relationships. It does not make anything Gen Z by throwing in some modern-day terms either. Overall, the film renders to be dull, and unengaging tale."[33] Akshay Kumar of Cinema Express wrote that "Ultimately, Suseenthiran’s 2K Love Story feels like it is merely a film that advocates platonic male-female friendship, conveniently avoiding the exploration of the complexities of such relationships."[34]
