Reception



Arnab Banerjee of 'Deccan Chronicle' gave the film a negative review and wrote that "What is also unbearable, at times, is the earsplitting background score: so loud it sounds that as a reflex action, you wish you could close your eyes to diminish the assault". Kunal Guha of 'Mumbai Mirror' said that "For those whove watched the televised version in the '80s on Doordarshan, this would hardly be nostalgic. If anything, it will ruin your childhood memories forever." Reza Noorani of 'The Times of India' said that "The movie is purely for kids, because it doesnt offer much in the way of narrating Ramayana differently to grown-ups. Considering it was made eight years ago, the animation is good. However, in 2016, it leaves you wanting for more". Shubhra Gupta of 'The Indian Express' said that "The animation of this movie is eye-catching but it is drowned by sheer noise".
