The Times of India rated the movie 3.5 out of 5 - There have been films made that speak about the concept of life and death. Rama Rama Re happens to be one such.

The film is not your regular entertainment fare, but it is a beautiful jigsaw puzzle that joins to form a philosophical note that is not preachy.[8]
