Reception

Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu opined that "The film goes haywire due to poor story and dialogues [...] A poor show unexpected of Krishna Reddy, where even the music too lacks the usual vigor and sense".^[4] Jeevi of Idlebrain.com said that "The story starts in the interval and drags till the climax. The only console in the film is occasional parallel comedy track by Brahmanandam. This film has no soul".^[5] Mithun Verma of Full Hyderabad wrote that "S V Krishna Reddy gives us some inspiring dialogues such as "Pulla Reddy: from a small laddu to big shop". His mind, though, wanders very often - but not to worry, it's appears too weak now to go very far".^[6]
