Reception

Critical reception

Roshni Mukherjee of ''The Times of India'' rated the film 3.5/5 stars and wrote "Back in full josh with the Jeet-Srabanti jodi, Ravi Kinagi casts his commercial magic once again. The man knows how to utilize his characters and he does so this time around too. If commercial is your cup of tea and you swear by the Ravi Kinagi-Jeet-Srabanti combo, “Fighter” should be the film on your list."
