Reception

Mihir Bhanage from The Times of India stated: "Till last year, remakes of South films were almost unheard of in the Marathi film industry but the trend which was predominantly Bollywood's so far, has caught up with Marathi filmmakers too. Vrundavan, the remake of the Telugu Brindavanam , is the latest to join the bandwagon." He gave 2.0 points out of 5. [9]

Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror described the film as "Good Acting Talent" and "Average film". [10]
