Pallabi Dey Purkayastha | Times of India: 4/5 | 8/10

Rahul Desai | Film Companion: - | 6/10
Vishal Bhardwaj’s Mumbai Dragon, too, feels like the sort of Modern Love story that is both specific and universal at once. It’s as funny as it is profound in its portrait of cross-cultural collision ... Full Review
Shubra Gupta | The Indian Express: - | 8/10
Amazon Prime series makes you fall in love with the city, all over again. This city is perhaps India’s only true ‘mahanagar’. The anthology may not inspire the same awed-affection as the Maximum City, but each story does have something uniquely Mumbai about it ... Full Review
Saibal Chatterjee | NDTV: 3.5/5 | 7/10
No matter what the gender of the director is or what the essential tilt of each story is, it is the women, both the fictional characters and the performers who portray them, who make the anthology worthwhile ... Full Review

FirstPost: - | 5/10
Fatima Sana Shaikh, Vishal Bhardwaj rescue the tame, stilted anthology. Modern Love feels muffled for much of its runtime, content in endorsing empty takeaways about love and second chances ... Full Review
Anuj Kumar | The Hindu: - | 9/10
A slam-dunk of an anthology if ever there was one. With compelling performances that accompany these poetic yet truthful representations in Modern Love: Mumbai, the shorts arrive like a breath of fresh air and leave us with a guileless smile ... Full Review
Rediff: 3.5/5 | 7/10
A mostly good selection of stories, and unlike so many other OTT shows that seem to think profanity and sex depict modernity, this one can be watched with the family without any discomfort ... Full Review
Uday Bhatia | Live Mint: - | 6/10
Modern Love Mumbai works best when grief turns to comedy. Inspired comic turns by Yeo Yann Yann and Fatima Sana Shaikh are the highlight of an otherwise heavy-handed collection of love stories ... Full Review
Nandini Ramnath | Scroll: - | 7/10
The show shares with its source a tendency towards corniness and neat solutions to the complications of the heart. Several episodes have a great deal of talking and a shot/reverse-shot shooting style, making the series well-suited for viewing on a phone ... Full Review
Cinema Express: 2.5/5 | 5/10
A soapy, syrupy anthology. Raat Rani and Mumbai Dragon are standouts in this entirely ordinary romantic series ... Full Review

Sanjukta Sharma | Money Control: - | 4/10
The love anthology fatigue worsens. Mumbai is a cinematic soufflé without a recognisable character or soul in this torpid adaptation of the original ‘Modern Love’ ... Full Review
The Print: 3.5/5 | 7/10
Modern Love: Mumbai will renew hope, in both the city and love. It is a well-made desi version and deserves to be viewed as such. Here’s hoping the Chennai and Hyderabad instalments too create their own brands. ... Full Review
The Quint: 3.5/5 | 7/10
Modern Love Mumbai gives you stories and characters that you will love. Raat Raani, Mumbai Dragon and I love Thane, for me, are stories that made Modern Love Mumbai everything it set out to be. Even though My Beautiful Wrinkles, Cutting Chai and BAAI has its highs - it lacks the ingredients which others have so beautifully put together ... Full Review
Shomini Sen | WIONews: - | 7/10
Modern Love Mumbai beautifully takes Mumbai in as an essential character in all its six stories on love. Shonali Bose and Vishal Bhardwaj’s shorts are the best of the lot ... Full Review
Bollywood Life: 3/5 | 6/10
Amazon Prime's anthology is a mixed bag that hits the right heartbeats more than it skips them ... Full Review

Mashable: 3.5/5 | 7/10
Modern Love: Mumbai tells six unique story but is a bit slow paced at times. However, it shows the real, raw and unfiltered love stories that are quite needed in the post-pandemic era. Also the background score of the show is beautiful. Modern Love: Mumbai manages to highlight the beauty and uniqueness of Mumbai city and every Mumbaikar must watch it ... Full Review
