Sonam Kapoor starrer Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga had a slow start at the box office despite being the solo Bollywood release. The film earned Rs 3.30 crore on its opening day. Sharing the collection of the Sonam Kapoor starrer Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#EkLadkiKoDekhaTohAisaLaga had a lacklustre start, but picked up at select urban centres towards evening... Growth on Day 2 and Day 3 essential for a respectable weekend total... Fri ₹ 3.30 cr [1500 screens]. India biz."
Talking about the movie, our in-house film critic Sreeju Sudhakaran wrote in his review, "Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga's premise pushes boundaries by bringing homosexuality out of the closet. What sets the movie a few steps back is that it doesn't really push the boundaries in handling the unusual love story. Still, I would recommend Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga for its feel-good narrative, bold premise and some heart-warming performances from the lead cast."
