ReceptionA critic from Zee News rated the film 2+3⁄4 out of 5 and wrote that "Although the film was stretched here and there and is boring, the interval and climax twists were well worked out. But the big minus is that it doesn't feel new anywhere".[18] A critic from NTV Telugu rated the film 2+1⁄2 out of 5 and wrote that "Being a routine story, there is novelty anywhere in the film. It can be said that it is the minus point of the whole movie".[19] A critic from Sakshi gave the film the same rating.[20] References
