Critical responseShubhra Gupta gave a negative review, writing ″Then they all get together and go looking for a plot. At one point, Veeru shoots Jai right in the middle of the forehead. The camera zooms in, and you see the hole, and the blood pouring out. Post-interval, Jai opens his eyes. Not even a bullet in the head can kill him. It's that kind of film.″[5] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5, writing ″Fardeen Khan is below average. Kunal Khemu is better; the masses will like him. Dia Mirza and Anjana Sukhani don't have much to do, although Dia's character has an interesting twist in the climax. Arbaaz Khan is passable. Govind Namdeo is average. Rajesh Khattar and Rakesh Bedi are okay. On the whole, JAI VEERU has something for the hardcore masses, but nothing for the elite/classes. Its business, therefore, will be restricted to the single screens, but multiplexes will be terrible.″[2] Accolades
