The audience universally praised the film for its conscious delivery of its intended content.
"Badass Ravikumar is Bollywood’s answer to the South’s mass masala! High-octane action, chartbuster songs, and a hero with unmatched swagger - this one’s a full-on PAISA VASOOL entertainer. If Pushpa 2 brings fire, Badass Ravikumar is the explosion!" a social media user noted.

"Forces you to think Differently! Do watch Best Action Emotion Spoof Comedy Ever with blend of everything. #HimeshReshammiya goes crazy with every Dialogue & All Actors doing spoof all around with serious moves & emotion #BadassRaviKumar," another user wrote.
Others, however, were not so amused by Reshammiya's acting and the film's pacing. "#BadassRaviKumar shines in short promos and trailers, but as a full-length movie, it feels irritating and boring. It takes a lot of patience to sit through the entire film," a user said.
"I like #HimeshReshmmiya a lot as a singer but not as an actor. Watched his film #BadassRaviKumar except #SunnyLeone and music, there is nothing worth watching in the film. Rating - 2 Star," another user wrote.
