Reception

Jeevi of Idlebrain.com gave the film a rating of two out of five and wrote that "The first half of the film provides some entertainment and a few surprise elements. Second half is boring at times". [6] Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu wrote that "There is nothing in the character of Vamsi for Raviteja to do anything. But for a new fights it is a drab role. Music composer Madhukar, making debut with this film, appears to be more a sound effects man". [1]
