In its review it rates the lyrics and singing as "Excellent" and the music as "Very Good".

India Today wrote: "Kaun Tujhe is the female version of the typical Armaan Malik romantic song - which are essentially paeans for the lover, who is exclusive, one in a million. Once again, the song is a winner because of the simplicity of its composition, singing, lyrics, and arrangement, which is not intrusive. Amaal Mallik lets his music breathe and take its time to come to its own in this film and that is a great quality."{{cite web|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/ms-dhoni-the-untold-story-music-review-amaal-mallik-sushant-singh-rajput/1/758519.html|title=India Today: MS Dhoni -The untold story music review |author=Devarsi Ghosh|date=7 September 2016|website=Indiatoday.In|publisher=India Today|accessdate=25 June 2017}}

Times of India wrote: "'Kaun Tujhe' tells the love story of MS Dhoni and his late girlfriend, Priyanka Jha. The song shows how the couple enjoyed simple joys of life such as a stroll in a market wherein Dhoni walked with a helmet on to avoid catching attention, highlighting the struggles of celebrities with the paparazzi. Dhoni's ladylove died in a tragic accident in 2002 when the successful innings of Indian skipper had just begun."{{cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/music/news/Watch-Kaun-Tujhe-tells-the-story-of-M-S-Dhonis-first-love/articleshow/53887012.cms|title=Kaun Tujhe Tells the story of MS Dhoni's first love|newspaper=The Times of India|access-date=25 June 2017}}

Daily News and Analysis wrote: "The song 'Kaun Tujhe' has been penned by Manoj Muntashir and composed by Amaal Mallik. Palak Muchhal has lent her soulful voice to make it even more melodious.
