Critical response
Sarpanch Bhagirath received mixed reviews from critics. Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror wrote"The film ends rather abruptly at a point more suitable as an intermission rather than climax, and much remains unsaid and unresolved".[5] Jayanti Waghdhare of Zee News wrote "Ramdas Futane has tried to give proper treatment to the movie. There are many things in the movie which have been seen in many movies before. So there is not much innovation in the cinema".[6] Soumitra Pote of Maharashtra Times gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "Though the chosen subject matter is important, the directorial grip seems to be loosened at many places. That's probably why even after the end of the movie, something remains".[7]
