NDTV’s film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave 1.5 stars to the movie. He wrote, “Mission Raniganj, set in Mahabir Colliery in West Bengal’s Raniganj area, does not dig deep enough as it mines the story of Jaswant Singh Gill, an intrepid engineer whose valour is part of Indian mining folklore. The man deserved a much better film. The film reinforces the lingering belief that Hindi cinema should leave true stories alone, especially if Akshay Kumar is to be placed at the centre of the action.  Mission Raniganj suffers the deleterious consequences of the spotlight being focused on the star rather than on the issues surrounding the mining disaster.” 

Kumud Mishra, Pawan Malhotra, and Ravi Kishan are additionally part of Mission Raniganj, directed by Tinu Suresh Desai.
