Release

The film released along with five other films.[4] The Times of India gave the film a rating of two out of five stars and wrote that "A better screenplay and an engaging narration would have made it at least a one time watch".[6] The Deccan Chronicle gave the film the same rating and wrote that "A taut narration and a little bit of coherence would have made it a better product".[7] Cinema Express wrote that "Advertised as a tribute to victims of honour killings, the beyond shoddy filmmaking ends up making this an insult to their memories instead".[8][9]
