The filmmaker who watched the film couldn't stop praising it and taking to social media, he wrote,"What a beautiful, authentic and simple film is #LaapataaLadies. So rooted in desi ethos. Director @ikiranraoshines with nuanced storytelling, casting, locations and almost every single detail. Brilliant performances by @PratibhaRanta @nitanshi_goel and outstanding Sparsh Shrivastava and everyone else. @ravikishann surprises as usual with his powerful performance.
Powerful yet simple dialogues:
“थाना में समस्या बताओ, हैसियत नहीं।”
“बुडबर्क होना शर्म का बात नहीं है, बुडबर्क होने पे गर्व करना शर्म का बात है।”
“गुमनामी से ज़्यादा बदनामी का डर?”
“क्या कला फ़िज़ूल है?”
Must watch for those who also like cinema without spectacle."

Hansal Mehta also took to social media to praise the film. The filmmaker described the film as simple, clear, and charmingly old-fashioned in a good way.
Taking to Twitter, Mehta shared his thoughts, "Saw the very big-hearted and moving 'Laapataa Ladies'. Sometimes all that is needed is simplicity and clarity. This film is that. I went in expecting more and finished with more than it apparently delivers."
'Laapataa Ladies' is a comedy-drama produced by Aamir Khan, Kiran Rao, and Jyoti Deshpande. The film features Nitanshi Goel, Pratibha Ranta, Sparsh Shrivastava, Chhaya Kadam, and Ravi Kishan.
Mehta further remarked, "It is old-fashioned in a good way and modern in a very subtle manner. It is deceptively simple in its treatment and humour."
'Laapataa Ladies' narrates the misadventures of two young brides who become separated from the same train. From mistaken identities to uproarious escapades, the ensuing chaos promises plenty of laughter and heartwarming moments.
