Reception
Fellow industry stars Kalki Koechlin and Imran Khan appreciated Varma and his film at the screening. Khan said, "The film was very enjoyable. It is actually on a very interesting subject. it is on a very relevant and a topical thing. The ones who have got married and the ones who have thought of getting married, I think that they will relate a lot to this film." Koechlin said, "I think it is a very interesting concept, the idea of 'The Virgins', people who are concerned about being a virgin or not being a virgin before marriage, we don't see that often explored in cinemas, so it's nice."[1]
