Reception

Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana from Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "With each film, he seems to be becoming as better dancer as well. There is spunk to his character and look. The chalk and cheese pairing of Vijay and Ramya also works. Ramya does a neat job and looks glamorous. Songs are the other highpoint of the film. They haunt you even after you've left the theatres. The film could have packed much more energy and fun given the director and his capable cast". [6] A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 4 out of 5 stars and wrote "'Pakkadmane Hudugi' (neighbourhood girl). Rangayana Raghu is marvellous as an ‘aunt’. Sharan, Dattanna and Achyuth Kumar have done justice to their roles. Camera work by Krishna and music by V Harikrishna have boosted the screenplay". [7] A critic from The New Indian Express wrote "Harikrishna has provided lilting music. Songs are full of rhythm. Cinematographer Krishna has done a neat job behind the camera. The movie is worth watching if you are interested in entertainment". [8]
