Critical response

A reviewer of 123Telugu says "This film will test your patience and insult your intelligence. Avoid it unless you want to experience visual torture". [2] Ch Sushil Rao from The Times of India wrote "Sai Ram Shankar steals the show as he performs with ease – both in his role, dance and fights. But he should know it is the 'Statue of Liberty' and not 'Liberty of statue' in the US". [3] Prasad from India Herald wrote "There are uncountable scenes of this kind which never stop testing your patience’s until you reach last 15 minutes of this movie.Entire technical team is big minus points to this flick".
