[[Raja Sen]] of [[Rediff]] gave it four out of five stars and stated, "Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap is not a particularly well-crafted film, but none of that matters as [[Amitabh Bachchan]] makes it work."<ref>{{cite web|title=Rediff review|url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/review/review-bbuddah-hoga-tera-baap/20110701.htm|work=Rediff|access-date=1 July 2011}}</ref> Behindwoods gave a score of two out of five and said, "If Amitabh is all that matters, watch it."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-reviews/reviews-2/jul-11-01/bbuddah-hoga-tera-baap-review.html|title=BBUDDAH HOGA TERA BAAP MOVIE REVIEW|publisher=Behindwoods|access-date=8 July 2011}}</ref> Nikhat Kazmi from the ''[[Times of India]]'' gave a three and a half stars and stated, "Bbuddah... is a high dose entertainer when the veteran actor never stops amazing you with the range of his histrionics. Despite his age, he grabs eyeballs with his action cuts, his comic cameos, his romantic ditties (with Hema), his libidinous encounters (with Raveena), his emotional bytes, his derring-do, and his over-the top sartorial sense."<ref>{{cite news|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/movie-reviews/hindi/Bbuddah-Hoga-Tera-Baap/movie-review/9052086.cms|title=Buddha Hoga Tera Baap|work=Times of India|access-date=1 July 2011}}</ref> Critic [[Taran Adarsh]] gave a four out of five stars and noted, "On the whole, Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap is a must-watch for Bachchan fans. Even if you're not a fan of this iconic actor, watch it for a simple reason: They don't make them like Amitabh Bachchan anymore. A masala entertainer all the way. Bachchan is truly the Baap, and this film reiterates this fact yet again. His character, his attitude and the dialogue he delivers will remain etched in your memory for a long, long time. Prakash Raj is super. In fact, it's a treat to watch powerful actors like Bachchan and Prakash Raj embroiled in a confrontation."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movies/review/14428/index.html|title=Movie Review|work=Bollywood Hungama|access-date=30 June 2011}}</ref>

[[Filmfare]] gave a four star rating and said, "Bbuddah... Hoga Terra Baap is a feast for Amitabh Bachchan buffs. The film ends with a disclaimer saying it's a tribute to the phenomenon, and that says it all."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.filmfare.com/articles/bbuddah-hoga-terra-baap-2501.html|title=Review|work=Filmfare|access-date=1 July 2011}}</ref> [[Zee News]] also gave four stars and stated,"‘Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap' is a typical Bollywood masala flick with all the ingredients to make it a Box Office hit. An out-an-out Amitabh Bachchan film, 'Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap' presents Big B in never before seen role, something which reminds you of the exhilarating performance of the iconic star in his earlier films."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://zeenews.india.com/entertainment/articles/story91235.htm|title=Review: 'Bbuddah...' an ode to yesteryears angry young man!|work=Zee News|access-date=1 July 2011}}</ref> [[Sify]] gave a two and a half star rating and explained, "Big B's presence is so overwhelming he makes the character— a violent, unlikable one—into a somewhat charismatic one. The altercations between Bachchan and the villain (Prakash Raj, fab) are to watch out for, especially towards the end. Also worth savoring are the Amitabh-Hema portions, where they create magic momentarily. It's an average story with archaic storytelling. If you're watching it, keep in mind that Big B is the only thing going for the film."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/bbuddah-hoga-terra-baap-big-b-rocks-film-is-a-bummer-review-bollywood-14973541.html|title=Bbuddah...
