However, the pacing is slow at times and a few portions could have been much better".[5] Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu cited the film as "a concoction of absurd ideas" and further stated: "Kiran Abbavaram’s expressions and dialogue delivery remain pretty much the same through the film".[6] Jeevi of Idlebrain gave a rating of 2.75 out of 5 and praised screenplay of climax scenes in the film.
