But the trade pundit had not marked the Abhishek Chaubey film as a winner. First Post,"The title of the film, Sonchiriya (the Golden bird), is itself a metaphor. It symbolieses the prized yet evasive treasure that the dacoits are on the lookout for, to pay the debt to their dharma. With this relevant, engaging film, Chaubey seems to have paid his debt. After Udta Punjab, he proves with even greater conviction why he is no rebel without a reason." The film has been getting mixed reviews from the audience as well as film critics.
