== Reception ==<br />
Sridhar Adivi of ''[[The Times of India]]'' rated the film 2.5/5 stars and wrote that Paranjee "sticks to a done-to-death plot and fails to engage the audience that had placed big hopes on this talented director, especially since it is his comeback film of sorts. But alas, ''Jayadev'' ends up as a disappointing fare".<ref name=":0" /> Murali Krishna CH of ''[[Cinema Express]]'' wrote, "''Jayadev'' is a deliberate attempt to show that Ghanta Ravi can flex his muscles, shake a leg to peppy numbers, shed some tears while making sure justice is served".<ref>{{Cite web |last=CH |first=Murali Krishna |date=30 June 2017 |title=Jayadev: An outlandish tale |url=https://www.cinemaexpress.com/reviews/telugu/2017/Jun/30/jayadev-an-outlandish-tale-860.html |access-date=30 April 2026 |work=[[Cinema Express]]}}</ref><br />
