the film was critically acclaimed by critics and was declared a 'superhit' at box office. the dialogue from jeet's dibakar singha, ""ami kono ishwar noi je chere debo aar rakshosh noy je mere debo. ami holam police... saala chara aar maarar majhkhane lotke rekhe debo"" (i am neither a god who will release nor a monster who will kill. i am police... i will hang you scoundrel between releasing and killing.) became very popular among the audience.
