Reception

Critical response

A critic from  The Times of India gave the film a rating of three out of five stars and wrote that "It’s Jaggesh’s show throughout. He has carried the story forward with catchy dialogues, good expressions and body language. Director N Rajesh could have a better job by cutting unnecessary sequences which we had seen years ago. There is nothing new in narration or the script". [10] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote that "On the whole, you can watch the movie once, provided you strongly believe in the fact that there is no logic but only masti (transl. fun)". [11] A critic from Chitraloka wrote tha "The film is an out and out slap stick film with no logic. Jaggesh carries the film entirely on his shoulders and he is the only reason for the audience to watch the film". [12]

Notes
