Critical reception Indiaglitz wrote "With some better technical inputs and good writing in terms of dialogue, the film could have scraped through." 123 Telugu wrote "One of the biggest drawbacks of the film is the boring and outdated narration. The makers have taken a routine story line and have showcased the film in a beaten to death formula. So, all the scenes and situations which come during this time are below par."
