Wroted by Masum Apu in Prothom Alo's survey "That change is even more evident in Rakkhosh. It is not an easy task to hold these two opposite entities together, cruelty on one side and love on the other. But Siam has done it. Where he is not only ready to die for his lover, but also to kill. It can be said that Siam is competing with himself. A competition to surpass the previous Siam! It can be said that Siam is now competing with himself. But there is another reason behind saying this. To get that hint, you have to wait till the end of the film. Just as when you say 'Rakkhosh', 'Rakkhosh' comes, similarly there is another layer in this story, which will be revealed at the end. However, I will not go further into that topic so as not to spoil the viewing pleasure of the audience. Another important thing is that Siam's performance has managed to hide the weakness and absurdity of the story of this film to a great extent. His contribution in retaining the audience is the most. It can be said that it is Siam's film, not the demon director's".^[13]

Wroted by Masum Apu in Prothom Alo's survey "Among the co-stars, Sohel Mondal, who came from the stage, did well. Abrar Athar is also present in equal measure. This director of exceptional works like 'Aadkhana Bhalo Chele Aadha Mastan' and 'Mainkar Chipay' also caught the eye as an actor by playing a negative character in the 'Baaji' series. After 'Rakkhosh', new ideas will also be created about him. Kolkata's Susmita Chatterjee has acted restrainedly in the role of the heroine. There was awareness in the accent in the mix of Dhaka and Kolkata. However, Shyam Bhattacharya could not shine as expected. His presence here is a bit pale compared to 'Borbaad'. Sujata could not add much to the character of Dadi either. The character could have been deeper. Ali Raj, however, has proven his ability".^[13]

Wroted by Thikana News's survey as "Many have praised the story, production and acting of the film. Especially the performance of the protagonist Siam Ahmed is at the center of discussion among the audience".^[14] Wroted by Jagonews24's survey as "Sohel's performance and look as the villain Shayan in the Shahreen Akhtar-produced movie 'Rakshas' has already caught the attention of the audience. Since the release of this movie directed by Mehedi Hasan Hridoy, his name has been in the discussion as the new villain of Dhallywood".^[15]

Wroted by Prothom Alo's survey as "The dark-thriller movie 'Rakshas' starring actor Siam Ahmed has been released on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr. The audience has been interested in the movie since the first day of its release. After a long preparation, fans are fascinated by seeing this new look of Siam on the big screen. The movie started showing at Star Cineplex with only 14 shows on Eid. However, due to audience demand, it has increased to more than 20".^[16]

Wroted by Shah Alam Saju in The Daily Star's survey "The trailer of the movie has already been released. Siam is getting praise after the trailer was released. The audience is looking at it quite positively. Showbiz stars are also writing praises about this much-discussed trailer and movie on social media".^[17]
