Reception
Griddhaluru Gopala Rao of Zamin Ryot gave the film a negative review. He noted that the first half is entertaining, but the film goes haywire in the second half. He praised the music, lyrics, picturisation in Jaipur but criticised the Telugu pronunciation of the singers, and certain plot points which he felt were unrealistic.[5] Andhra Today wrote "The story is unique and has good roles. But the director failed to exploit to his advantage and thereby failed the audience. Even the strong bondage of love between Vasanth and Sailaja has not been well portrayed. With a little more imagination and perspective, the director could have taken the movie to better heights by making it an entertainer and the movie would have made a big hit".[6]
