Reception Jeevi of Idlebrain.com rated the film 2.5/5 and wrote, "Though the narration sounded neat, the emotions of the film were not brought out. EVV should stop handling subjects which he is not familiar with and start adapting the his[sic] good old narration style, which has given his blockbusters in the past".
