Critical reception



Debasree Purkayastha of 'The Hindu' mentioned that the film has "a stirring ensemble of slice-of-life tales that dwell on the common themes of loneliness, love and hope." Saibal Chatterjee from NDTV wrote: "As a freewheeling rumination on loneliness, distress and lingering hope, the anthology, buoyed by a slew of terrific performances, is a pertinent commentary on a pandemic and its depredations."

Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in praised the performances in the film but was critical of the treatment. Writing for 'The Indian Express', Shubhra Gupta noted that the film mixes different themes like loneliness and isolation "with news that has made headlines in this terrible virus-laden year, with average results." Anna M. M. Vetticad wrote: "'Unpaused' is important because it serves to chronicle this slice of history. It helps that it is also an enjoyable, insightful affair."
