A critic from 123telugu wrote that "It has 4 new stars and the usual; 6-song-5-fights routine. But the difference here is director Ramesh Varma’s presentation. What lets the movie down badly is a poor script. The “one-bicycle-sold-to-two-guys” is a wafer-thin premise for a storyline".[5] Jeevi of Idlebrain.com rated the film three-and-a-quarter out of five and wrote that "Ramesh Varma did a better job compared to his last film, but it is not good enough!"[6]
