Reception

Idlebrain wrote "It is a very atypical of Raghavendra Rao and Chiru combination to select such a soft story. He did not do complete justice to direction as he seem to have lost his grip over subject during the last two reels. Muthaya Subbaiah or Jayanth would have handled this story in a better manner. He hurried at the end giving a complete anti-climax".^[4] Andhra Online wrote "You have great expectations when it is a Chiranjeevi film. More so when it is directed by Raghavendra Rao. Sad to say, expectations fall flat, at least when it comes to the story which is anything but new. How many times, Oh! How many times has friendship between a man and a woman and the misunderstandings about it been dealt with? Innumerable".^[5]
