Reception

Jeevi of Idlebrain rated the film three out of five and wrote, "Over all, it's a watchable film that has got some entertainment value. Made on a shoestring budget, this Srikanth-starrer is all set to recover the money and make handsome profits." [1] A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote, "This film falls precisely into that category, where everything is as morbid as the designation of this title to a Jane Austin novel." [2] Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu noted, "Director Sattibabu and dialogue writer Maruduri Raja can take full credit for making this film an engrossing and entertaining comedy." [3]
