The film was actually scheduled to release in the September 2009 but because of the multiplex strike the film was delayed by five months and finally released on 19 February 2010.
Toh Baat Pakki failed to do well at the box office upon its release. It performed between 10–15% in the first week. This was a great shock to the public as well as the crew as it was highly publicised. The film along with Click and Aakhari Decision, which were released together, did not perform well. This proved that My Name Is Khan, which was released the previous week, still dominated the Box Office. In the first two-three days Click ruled over Toh Baat Pakki but later Toh Baat Pakki gained collections. The film grossed Rs. 34,500,000 and was declared a flop.
Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India rated the film 3 on 5 stars, writing, "Well, Toh Baat Pakki may not be as riveting as the 80s entertainers, yet it rides high on sheer nostalgia. Also, it presents a different kind of cinema in an age that lays great emphasis on high decibel, larger-than-life drama."
Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 2 out of 5 stars, writing, "On the whole", he says, "Toh Baat Pakki has a few interesting moments, but not enough to keep you hooked."
Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times, gave the film 1.5 out of 5 stars, saying that the film is mainly for those who love family dramas and emotions. He also adds that the sets and locations were lacking, along with the music. He says that the plot is inappropriate and the film continues on and "Why Tabu, really!"
The soundtrack consists of 10 songs composed by Pritam. OneIndia tells that the music has got mainly Punjabi mix beats like Jis Din and Dil Le Jaa. Taran Adarsh comments that the movie's music is poor except for Jis Din. which was written by Mayur Puri.
