Contents

The film revolves around a petty thief who robs parts in electronic shops and why he robs electronic shops and departmental stores. The movie was considered a hit at the box office. Since the budget was very low of 1.5 crores, this movie is considered to be one of the highest-grossing low budget movies by getting 4 crores. [1] The film released with low expectations on 4 April 2014 in theaters. [2] Upon release, the film received largely positive reviews from critics and audience for its humour. [3]

Reception

The film received positive reviews from critics. The Hindu gave a review stating "While the audience laughs and claps at the spoof, the movie disappoints in the acting skills. The audience seemed oblivious to it though. All actors appear very raw. Some scenes looked straight out of a low budget slow Telugu TV serial. The director seems to have handled the situation well, with one after another clichéd scenes coming with a pun. The director has smartly avoided making the movie a spoof to belittle the Telugu movie industry and larger-than-life heroes. It’s just a fun take on typical masala movies." [4] Jeevi of Idlebrain.com rated the film three-and-a-quarter out of five and wrote that "Hrudaya Kaleyam is first straight film in Telugu in this genre (Sudigaadu was little similar, but was a remake). One has to be tuned to Sampoornesh Babu and Hrudaya Kaleyam teasers in order to enjoy the film to fullest". [5]
