A critic from Idlebrain.com said that "Over all, it's an average flick and worth watching for all curious people to see how Prabhas fared". [6] A critic from Sify opined that "On the whole Takkari Donga director Jayant C Paranji’s new film Eeswar is lacklustre". [7] Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu wrote, "A little more care in streamlining the climax part of the story would have made the drama look sensible and different. The film has been unnecessarily stretched too far and beyond the three-hour limit too". [2]
The 100 day celebration for the film was held in Guntur. [8]
