Crocodile Love story getting mixed reviews from critics.

A critic from The Times of India rated the film two out of five and wrote that "The crocodile, a decent manifestation of technical effects, is a mere symbol of a triviality that could hurl a mob into panic. The cast accomplish their tasks with comfort and look more than credulous".[3]
