Reception Aparajita Saha of Rediff.com wrote, "In spite of the cliches, there are a few interesting twists and turns that save the film from being utterly predictable, though eventually, the storyline does succumb to the usual love triumphing over evil. There are times you find your way to the edge of the seat, only to comfortably settle back again."
