Reception

A critic from Cinema Express rated the film three out of five stars and wrote that "It is a joy to watch when characters in films do not behave like they are conscious of the fact that they are in a film. It takes effort to create “realness”, a mood that persists through most parts of Heads and Tales, written by Sandeep Raj and directed by Sai Krishna Enreddy". [2] A critic from 123telugu rated the film 2+34 out of 5 and wrote that "On the whole, Head and Tales is a simple film that has a good backdrop. Though the performances are good, the dull narration and lack of good drama take down the film and make it just an ordinary watch due to its crisp runtime". [3] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "The concept Heads & Tales is based on sounds pretty good on paper, but when it comes to the narration and execution of these characters and the film’s plot points, the director falters. While the performances are laudable, the subdued narration is a let-down". [4]
