VJ Cyrus Sahukar also goes with Imraan, as he says, "He has great poise. I think he is one of those rare 'thinking' actors who have already done some very interesting work. He is hardworking and knows what he wants for himself. So, undoubtedly, he is the best debutant of the year."

Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh said, "Imraan is oozing talent and has proved it in both his films. Even if Kidnap wasn't a big hit, Imran's performance stood out and he was able to hold his own against a veteran like Sanjay Dutt."
