==Reception==
''[[The Indian Express]]'' rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "''Krishnamma'' has its moments, but it is nothing we haven’t seen on the Telugu screen.

It may tread familiar ground, but it does so with enough competence and emotional depth to make it a worthwhile experience for fans of the genre".<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/telugu/movie-reviews/krishnamma/movie-review/110005830.cms |title=Krishnamma Movie Review : A tense tale of revenge and brotherhood |work=The Times of India}}</ref>

''[[Cinema Express]]'' rated the film two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "There are many such moments in ''Krishnamma'', where debutant writer-director VV Gopala Krishna convinces us that his heart is in the right place. Alas, the film falls prey to its predictability and lack of efficient craftsmanship".<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.cinemaexpress.com/telugu/review/2024/May/10/krishnamma-review-a-well-intentioned-but-underwhelming-crime-drama |title=Krishnamma Review: A well-intentioned but underwhelming crime-drama |first=B.
