Critical response

R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 2 out of 5 stars and says "Performance wise, Anirudhdh, though handicapped by a bad script, tries to be lively throughout the film. Anant Nag has once again done a good job. Vidisha, who has already worked in three Telugu films, is yet to learn what acting is all about though she looks glamorous. Tennis Krishna's comedy will entertain only front benchers. Roja acts in a brief role while Vinaya Prakash and Vanitha Vasu fit the bill".^[1] A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "It is a treat to watch Anirudh giving his best in emotional and romantic scenes. Vidisha is a perfect choice for the role. R Giri's camerawork is okay. Music by Rajesh Ramanath is average and Mohan impresses with catchy dialogues" ^[2] A critic from Sify.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "Anirudh has done his best in dancing, action and other deprtments [sic]. Vidisha as debutant has a good role to perform. Priyanka the local girl is also impressive. Ananthnag is as usual casual best. Roja, Vinayaprakash and Lakshmidevi have little to perform. Rajesh Ramanath copies the hit Hindi music tunes in one of the three good songs he has scored. Giri as cameraman is average. On a whole an enjoyable fare".^[3]
