Critical Reception
Some reviewers have found the film lacking in originality and engagement. CineJosh described it as an “outdated romantic entertainer” with a “predictable story and snail-paced screenplay” that “test[s] the patience of viewers.” They rated the film 1.5 out of 5.
Similarly, Ragalahari criticized the film for its “silly story,” stating that it “tests your patience,” though acknowledging that “the music and the rich frames alone make it somewhat bearable.”
Audience Feedback
Audience reactions have been mixed. On IMDb, a user commented that the movie is “so nice,” praising the comedy, music, and performances, particularly highlighting the lead actors’ work.
Conversely, a Reddit user felt that while the story was decent and the songs beautiful, the main lead’s performance was lacking.

Greatandhra.com noted that the visuals, captured by cinematographer Prem Sagar, are “widely praised for their beauty,” and that Sashank T’s “captivating score enhances the narrative.” The director, Chilukuri Akash Reddy, received commendation for presenting a “heartfelt love story between an introvert and an extrovert.
