Reception
= Critical response
=Suhas Yellapantula from The New Indian Express wrote "You pinch yourself to believe it when he says it a second time, but when you realise that it's a constant fixture in the film -- you know it's time to leave the theatre". A reviewer of 123Telugu wrote "However, a slightly dragged out second half and lack of grip in the proceedings during this time makes this film just an okay watch this weekend". Ch Sowmya Sruthi from The Times of India says "The episodes in the first half where Vishnu Manchu imitates his dad Mohan Babu’s dialogue delivery got the loudest whistles".
