Reception



Reviewing the film for 'Firstpost', Hemanth Kumar appreciated the humour and performances and wrote, "'Ami Thumi i's a screwball comedy, theres plenty of confusion and plenty of chasing around, but more than anything, it has a tone which has long been missing in Telugu cinema." Karthik Keramalu of 'The News Minute', also echoed the same, calling it "screwball comedy at its finest." Keramalu praised Kishore in particular, adding "its Kishore who enjoys the largest share of the pie. Hell win a great number of awards next year for his zany character, Sri Chilipi." 'The Hindu' critic Sangeetha Devi Dundoo also called Kishore "the star of the film," stating that making Sri Chilipi the pivotal character in this drama is where the surprise lied in. Reviewing other performances, Suresh Kaviryani of 'Deccan Chronicle' wrote: " Adivi Sesh and Avasarala are the lead actors, but Adivi Sesh gets far more exposure; Avasaralas role is like a cameo. Eesha is good and her Telangana accent authentic. Thanikella Bharani gets another important role and does well, experienced actor that he is."

Ch Sushil Rao of 'The Times of India' felt that the film fared average with loose dots of laughter. Rao was critical of the technical aspects, writing, "Theres nothing much to talk about the locales or cinematography since most of it is shot indoors adhering to the demands of the screenplay. The music too is average and usually seats in the backseat throughout the story. " A reviewer from 'Sify' wrote: "'Ami Thumi' doesn't have much story line but does generate some laughs."

Soundtrack



The music has been composed by Mani Sharma and released by Aditya Music.
