The songs of the film were extremely popular, with the Kishore-Asha duet song "Hum Tum Gum Sum" being on the top of the charts for more than a year. The tune of the Rafi-Lata duet "Kahe Ko Bulaya" was even adapted as a religious song in subsequent decades. Kishore Kumar considered the song "Rasta Dekhe Tera Vyakul Man Mera" as close to his heart.

It's disturbing to see such an atrocious, regressive, misogynistic, sexist, homophobic cinematic product force-fed to paying audiences. I can understand that a comedy need not be 'safe', but what goes on in Humshakals is simply too horrifying to bear."[14] Sweta Kaushal of Hindustan Times rated the film 0.5 out of 5 and stated "With no story or comedy on offer, even Riteish and Ram are unable to save the day for Sajid Khan."[15] Mohar Basu of Koimoi gave it 0/5 stars and said the film was "[l]oaded with indecipherable dim wit" and "an odd mishmash of pathos and drudgery."[16] Writing in Emirates 24/7, Sneha May Francis claimed that it succeeded Khan's previous endeavor, Himmatwala, in becoming the worst Bollywood film ever.[17] Critic Sonia Chopra of Sify.com wrote "there are bad movies, and then there's Humshakals. The worst film of 2014 so far, in my book".[18] Dainik Bhaskar rated the movie as one of the worst films of the decade.[19]

Another terrific song; also terrifically racist. Here a man with darkened skin and some sort of afro wig is seen visibly lusting after a fair skinned woman. The raging lust is supposedly so uncontrollable that the man is caged like an animal.
