Critical reception
Kanchana Suggu of Rediff praised the acting performances of Ashutosh Rana, Tinnu Anand, Jimmy
Shergill, Hrishita Bhatt and Irrfan Khan and said that, "Haasil is powerful, honest, real; it makes you cringe
in your seat."[4] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film a rating of 2 out of 5 saying that,
"Though the film has several gripping moments and a power-packed performance by Irfan Khan, the
outcome is hampered when the movie drifts into predictable zone, post-interval."[5] Shahid Khan of Planet
Bollywood praised the acting performances of all actors and gave the film a rating of 8 out of 10 saying that,
"Tigmanshu Dhulia directs the film with great skill. It is admirable the way he handles the scenes of
violence. They make you sit up and take notice."[6]
