Critical reception

Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM gave the film 2 stars out of 5, writing ″On the whole, HAWAS is a notch above the ordinary. And with sex, sleaze and skin-show as its trump cards, besides a mass appealing title, it has chances of scoring well at the ticket window, mainly at the small centers.″[2] Shruti Bhasin of Planet Bollywood wrote ″Overall, watch Hawas as a time-pass film. But if you want to see a better quality product of a similar theme, check out Murder or rent the original Hollywood flick Unfaithful.″[3] Rama Sharma of The Tribune (Chandigarh) wrote ″ “Hawas” is another film riding on the wave of sexual permissiveness. It is another matter that these themes are not handled with sensitivity. In the absence of good scripts, most of these like “Hawas” end up mocking at the man-woman relationship.″[4]
