Reception
Dhaval Roy of The Times of India said that "Although the film lacks a proper story and mostly depicts day-to-day life, the narrative works well, despite its intermittent slow pace."[1] A. Sharadhaa of the Cinema Express said that "September 21 suggests that Alzheimer's doesn't erase love; it rearranges it. By reminding us of this, the film gently shifts our focus to the caregivers, those who stand beside fading memories. September 21 finds its emotional anchor in performance, with its actors lending flesh and fragility to a story about memory and loss."[2] Vinamra Mathur of the Firstpost said that "Karen Kshiti Suvarna's drama leaves a quiet yet powerful emotional impact. A sensitive film on Alzheimer's, fading memory, and unseen caregivers."[3] Y. Maheswara Reddy of the Bangalore Mirror said that "Priyanka Upendra has acted well. Pravin Singh Sisodia walks away with all honours for his sterling performance. That scene conveys the much-needed message to society on the importance of being kind."[4]
