Directed by Vishal Pandya and written by Sameer Arora, the movie has not been received well by critics. However, a section of the audience still wants to watch the series. Trade analyst Girish Johar had said that the Hate Story films have built itself a loyal fan base in the two-tier cities and can, therefore, be expected to do reasonably well at the box office.
Indian Express film critic Shubhra Gupta has given the Hate Story 4 one star and written, “The plot is a steady stream of hot bods. And acting, what’s that? The film has no ambitions that-a-way, so there. You should also know that Hate Story 4 has subtitles: if the characters are speaking in Hindi, we see English transliteration, and vice versa, and the lines are a hoot. Sample this: ‘bedroom mein ki gayi promises boardroom mein nahin laate’ or words to that effect. And this, my favourite: ‘enjoying with your new keep?’”
