Reception
Jeevi of Idlebrain.com rated the film one out of five and wrote that "Except for a few inspirational quotes uttered in a couple of scenes by Surya, the entire film is a boring one".[3] Mithun Verma of Full Hyderabad rated the film one out of ten and wrote that "The lead pair, as mentioned earlier, appears to have been wearing too tight pants for their liking. The other departments like music, script, comedy, direction etc. are visible very clearly in the credits. That's all the appearance they do".[4]
