Reception

Y. Sunitha Chowdhary of The Hindu opined that "The film is excruciatingly slow, the first scene where the kids climb a wall and put up posters is ambitious and interesting, but sadly the interest wanes very soon". [4] Sridivya Palaparthi of The Times of India said that "Pittagoda is a no-frills story and an honest attempt to entertain. If you’re looking for a laid back watch for the weekend, this is it". [5] A critic from 123Telugu said that "On the whole, Pittagoda is small town love story which has its heart in the right place". [6]
