Reception
Jeevi of 'Idlebrain.com' wrote that "Priyudu is a better film for Varun Sandesh after 'Kotha Bangaru Lokam'. A critic from 'The Hindu' wrote that "The story gives out an outdated approach to narration and also the characters". A critic from 'The Times of India' wrote that "It just looks like a mish mash of many similar films of the past". '123 Telugu' wrote that "Priyudu is a film that has not much going for it except for some instances of humour in the first half". A critic from 'Full Hyderabad' opined that "The movie is a plain commonplace romance, nothing more than an over-dramatization of the kind of unremarkable situations that college youth get into".
