Thadhagath Pathi of The Times of India gave a critical rating of 2 out of 5 and stated: "On their way to make a new-age and youthful series, Maruthi and Maggie lose the track completely and more importantly, forget to update their material to suit the current generation. 3 Roses is just potential lost".^[10] Giving the similar rating, Pinkvilla echoed the same. In the review, the critic opined that "the characters are unidimensional, especially the elders, who are described as "enemies" by a pub singer. Ageist jokes are a staple here".^[11] The Hans India wrote that "The series is romantic as well as humorous. Maruti Mark has been instrumental in bringing the Kathmandu thing that is happening in our environment to life. Stir in the emotions along with the pleasure. The story, written by Ravi Namburi, was interestingly screened by director Maggie as the audience immersed themselves, is architecturally superior".^[12]
