Reception[]

Zombivili received positive reviews from the critics for portraying the class divide during zombie apocalypse.[5] Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India called it "Zombie apocalypse with a dash of humour," and wrote: "The film begins on a high note and picks steam soon. However, midway, it loses steam and becomes a drag-fest before picking up pace again during the climax."[6] Scroll.in reviewer Nandini Ramnath opined that the film was a tribute to Edgar Wright’s Shaun of the Dead. "Zombivli plays out largely as a comedy with mostly harmless bodies jerking about. It’s the humans of Dombivli, including the venal Musale and Sudhir’s selfish neighbours, who prove to be far more dangerous," Ramnath added.[7] Writing for Maharashtra Times, Kalpeshraj Kubal reviewed the technical aspects and stated: "The makeup, VFX, cinematography in the film is excellent and linear. A. V. Prafulla Chandra has done the background music. It stays in mind even after the movie is over. This zombie will love to see, hear and experience [sic]."[8]

Copyright issues[]

Filmmaker Tarun Wadhwa had filed a petition in the High Court. The petition claimed that the film 'Saregama India Limited ' had allegedly made the film using his idea. They have not even taken permission for this. According to the petitioner, he had shared the idea related to the film with the filmmaker in the year 2018. After some time the filmmaker rejected my idea. But in the year 2020, the filmmaker announced the film named 'Zombivli'. Justice Patel said that the idea cannot be copyrighted. Further, in this case the petitioners have failed to prove their claim. Saying this, the Justice refused to stay the Screened of the film.[9]
