He added that Ravi Teja's performance was convincing and supporting cast played their part as well.[2] Idlebrain.com rated the film 3/5 and wrote, "The film starts on an interesting and offbeat note. Due to slow narrative, the film is dragged in some moments. Overall, it is a good film with offbeat storyline."[3]
