Reception
[edit]The movie has received positive reviews from critics. Indian critic Suparna Sharma has praised the movie and mentioned in her review published in Deccan Chronicle and Asian Age, "The film opens with one of the best making-out scenes I've seen in Hindi cinema. It's hurried, awkward and disastrous. It is the kind of film where the writers, director and actors have plugged into not just the characters, but also the circumstance they were born into, the place and, hence, their stories. This shines throughout Kerry on Kutton and it's no mean feat. Kerry on Kutton carries in its sounds, sights and similes a strong stench of Baghi Ballia, a dusty patch of UP badland that's not just nostalgic about the reputation it once had, but can also be delusional."
Another critic Sankhayan Ghosh writes in Hindu, "In the bizarrely named Kerry on Kutto, a clandestine meeting between Jyoti (Aradhana Jagota) and Kerry (Satyajeet Dubey) takes place in an aloo ka gudaam – a potato godown. Before we know it, they are making out. While they are at it, they make fart jokes and Jyoti remarks on Kerry's pan-stained teeth, "Itna masala kyun khaate ho?" before engaging in a long smooch.This scene from the film stands out as it bends the rules of the standard lovemaking scene in Hindi cinema. It is more carnal desire than genteel lovemaking. And the embracing of the inappropriateness, albeit done in a comical way, is a welcome change. In Kerry on Kutton, there are many such moments, dialogues that border on the profane: a heart-to-heart about men's urinal problems or a tooth found in a gulab jamun, most probably the halwai'."
