Reception
A critic from Sify wrote that "Meow is narrated in a conventional way and if you are fine about that style, this one could be a fine watch".[7]
The Times of India wrote that "Both the script and the direction needed to be tighter to keep the audience interested, particularly when viewers are spoilt for choice on OTT platforms".[8]
A critic from The News Minute wrote that Meow is just a random sequence of events in somebody’s life that you get to watch, but you don’t really get the point of it".[9]
A critic from The Hindu wrote that "Meow is one of those films that does not hit any highs or lows, and proceeds along at a largely uneventful, even pace".[10]
Contrary to the negative reviews, a critic from Manorama Online praised the film and said that "In short, Meow is the perfect family entertainer for this Christmas".[11]
