Reception
Critical response

Rajeev Masand of News 18 wrote that the film kept him guessing till the end and said, "It's not a perfect film, but there's enough to merit a single watch", and gave 2.5/5 stars. Sify.com mentioned that the film is good looking and first time director Samir Soni seems to grasp the secret of audiences' collective gasp. Rediff.com wrote that this psychological thriller is an honest effort and a huge relief for movie enthusiasts and gave 3.5/5 stars. Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film a rating of 1.5 stars out of 5 and said that, "The plotting and the treatment of My Birthday Song is far too inept to create a solid psychological thriller out of this looping-upon-itself story, whose big reveal is too brief, too late." Sweta Kaushal of Hindustan Times gave the film a rating of 2 stars out of 5 and said that, "Debutante director Samir Soni starts off with an amazing idea which is failed by its execution. It is the heavy-footed treatment of the film that fails it. It is so over-dramatic that even the solid theme on which it is based gets lost."
