Though the film opened to mixed reviews from the netizens, Ikka is still one of the highly recommended Netflix dramas. Several viewers felt that the drama had the potential to become a gripping courtroom drama but failed to maintain consistency throughout its runtime. One reviewer summed up the disappointment by writing, “#Ikka delivers a few solid moments with Akshaye Khanna and Sunny Deol bringing their presence, but uneven writing and weak storytelling stop it from becoming a memorable ride. Ikka nahin, ye toh duggi niklaa ree baba.”
