ReceptionOn the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 83% of 6 critics' reviews are positive.[5] Suchin Mehrotra of Hindustan Times in his review stated "The Romantics works best when it uses the YRF filmography merely as a stepping-off point to discuss Hindi cinema as a whole. The show comes to us at a time when it feels like filmmakers are looking back and celebrating what was."[6] A reviewer for Indian Express stated "It’s all rah-rah, hardly any nose-digs, but then you don’t really expect any in a series like this, about the biggest, most storied production house in Hindi cinema."[7] Renuka Vyavahare at The Times of India rated season 1 4 stars out of 5 and remarked "The Romantics is a treat to watch if you love Hindi cinema and Yash Chopra, which are pretty much synonymous."[8] Shubham Kulkarni from Koimoi rated 4/5 and wrote "The Romantics is an ode to the man who defined Hindi cinema for decades and even died with his director’s hat on."[9] References
