Reception

A critic of The Times of India stated that "Santosh Shobhan and Gouri G Kishan fare well in this romantic comedy. But archaic storytelling, trivial comic sequences and lack of engagement make it a drag".[5] Abhilasha Cherukuri of Cinema Express, wrote that "The lack of cinema-appropriate depth-of-field in most frames, the barely functional editing, or the unfunny jokes gives the audience a feeling of watching an amateur short film".[6] A critic of 123Telugu opined that the film has a routine storyline.[7]
