Reception
The film received mostly negative reviews from critics and audiences. It was criticized for its poor script, direction, editing, music and performances. The film was also accused of being regressive, melodramatic and unrealistic. The film has a rating of 2.8 out of 10 on IMDb and 1 out of 5 on Bollywood Hungama.

The film was also involved in a controversy when Ranaut claimed that she was not paid for her work in the film. She also said that she regretted doing the film and called it a mistake.
Trivia
The film was originally titled Begum Jaan, but it was changed to avoid confusion with another film of the same name starring Vidya Balan.
Ranaut did extensive research to prepare for her role in the film; she visited kothas and met women there to understand their mindset and body language. She also learned classical dance forms like Kathak and Mujra for the film.
The film was shot in real locations like Kamathipura, Mumbai's red-light area, and Rajasthan. The film also used real hijras (transgender people) for some scenes.
The film was based on a novel by Patil, who is also a historian and a former IAS officer. He said that he wanted to make a film on the plight of nautch girls and the dying culture of kothas.
The film was released on the same day as Ram-Leela, a blockbuster film starring Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone. This affected the box office performance of Rajjo, as most of the screens and audiences were occupied by Ram-Leela.
