Reception

Aditya Devulapally of Cinema Express gave a mixed review stating that "Ultimately, while Kali deserves recognition for its daring experimentation, it’s hard to ignore its shortcomings. For all its creative madness, the film remains more of an intriguing effort than a fully realised success". [5] NTV gave a rating of 2.7 out of 5 and praised the director's work, Jeevan Babu's background score and production design. [6] ABP Desam echoed the same and gave a rating of 2.5 out of 5, while particularly praising Jeevan Babu for his work in background score and the performance of lead cast. [7]
