Reception

Aditya Devulapally of Cinema Express rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "The crime thriller directed by Basireddy Rana has a smart serial killer concept but falls flat with weak craft".[9] A critic from Deccan Chronicle wrote that "The screenplay keeps viewers on the edge of their seats, skillfully weaving suspense with emotional depth. Though the pacing falters slightly in the second half, the return to a frenetic rhythm in the climax compensates for any lulls in momentum."[3]
