Reception



'Criticl Reception'

The Times of India gave 2.5/5 stating "Arjun Gowda tries to be a film with social commentary and also a love story at the same time, without forgetting the commercial requisites. This is where the film falters. The makers could have focused on just one of them and probably the story could have had its desired impact"

The New Indian Express gave 3/5 stating "Prajwal Devaraj gives an all-around performance. Priyanka Thimmesh has tried to justify her space and Sparsha Rekha makes her presence felt. Sadhu Kokilas comic episodes have no connection with the films story."
