Dharmesh Rajput of BBCi-Films gave it 3 out of 5 stars, praising the performance of Amitabh Bachchan stating, 'the real pleasure of this film is Amitabh's performance — is it any wonder he was voted best actor at the BBC Online Millennium Polls? This man is good value for money on the big screen'.[4] N.K Deoshi of Apunkachoice.com also gave the film 3 out of 5 stars but said 'Suneel Darshan had all the ingredients to make a blockbuster, a celluloid virtuoso like Big B, a bevy of willowy beauties Karisma, Juhi and Simone Singh and, last but not the least, the khiladi Akshay Kumar. But despite such an impressive ensemble Ek Rishta turns out to be quite a disappointing fare'.[5] Savera R Someshwar of Rediff.com gave the a negative review calling the screenplay terrible but praised the performances of Amitabh, Akshay, Karishma, Rakhee, Juhi Chawla and Mohnish Behl.[6]
