== Reception ==<br />
Archika Khurana from ''[[The Times of India]]'' rated the series 3.5 out of 5 stars and said that "A gripping, atmospheric watch—best suited for fans of investigative, psychological, and grounded supernatural storytelling".<ref>{{cite web |first=Archika|last=Khurana|title=Bhay: The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery Season 1 Review : Karan Tacker–Kalki Koechlin lead a chilling dive into Gaurav Tiwari's mysterious world |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/web-series/reviews/hindi/bhay-the-gaurav-tiwari-mystery/season-1/seasonreview/125930263.cms |website=The Times of India |date=12 December 2025}}</ref> Arpita Sarkar of ''[[OTT Play]]'' gave the series 2 stars out of 5 and stated that "The ghosts aren't scary, the cases lack suspense, and the emphasis on paranormal investigation overshadows the potential for deeper explorations into Gaurav's personal life. The real-life footage adds a little interest, but overall, the series struggles to captivate or terrify.

<br />
''[[Bollywood Hungama]]'' gave 3 stars out of 5 and said that ""On the whole, BHAY - THE GAURAV TIWARI MYSTERY is an intriguing paranormal thriller powered by an unusual premise, a solid investigative hook and Karan Tacker’s terrific central performance. Sadly, a show with such mass appeal has dropped with limited promotion. Hence, it’ll need a strong word of mouth to catch the attention of its vast target audience."<ref>{{cite web |title=Web Series Review: BHAY – THE GAURAV TIWARI MYSTERY is an intriguing paranormal thriller with an unusual premise |url=https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/features/web-series-review-bhay-gaurav-tiwari-mystery-intriguing-paranormal-thriller-unusual-premise/|website=Bollywood Hungama|date=14 December 2025}}</ref><br />
