Reception

Poor performances, bad direction and silly scenes will test the limits of your patience. The long run time and foolish narration only make things worse. Stay away from this movie unless you want to watch something that is embarrassingly bad". [8] The Times of India gave rating 2/5 and stated "Nikhil is his energetic self but he really cannot pull a whole movie by himself, at least not this one. The characterization, screenplay, music all borders on the mindless". [9]
