Reception

The Indian Express wrote "Candy is a pulpy murder mystery that has the potential to create an engaging storyline but the over-the-top drama that's at play here might put off some audience members."[7] The Times of India rated 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Candy has some good performances and unpredictable twists. Nakul Roshan Sahdev as Vayu Ranaut in particular deserves a mention for his portrayal of a troubled son craving for love. The hills have eyes and creators Debojit Das Purkayastha and Agrim Joshi craft the thriller well."[8]

Scroll.in praised Ronit Roy and Richa Chadha's acting and wrote "Ronit Roy and Richa Chadha turn out committed performances, but fare better in the rare sombre scenes in which they are permitted to have a moment to themselves."[9] News18 wrote "Candy is an engaging thriller from start to finish, with twists you cannot predict. There is a very cool Gone Girl style shift in narration, where we find out that everything that we have known so far has been a lie. However, since they have a solid climax in place, there was no need for so many twists in the first place."[10] Zee News rated 3.5/5 stars and wrote "Candy isn’t a PSA for drugs but a story of a corrupt system that was exposed after the death of a young life."[11]

Pinkvilla wrote "Candy is a well-made murder mystery that rides on the towering performances of Ronit Roy and Richa Chadha with an element of unpredictability towards the end."[12] Lehren wrote "Spread over eight episodes are a Thai connection, grave lines from Jayant Parekh on Sermons vs Science, a crude fallout between the Ranauts with father and son hurling filthy abuse at each other, and a few more killings with “Sirji” orchestrating it."[13]
