Reception
Citing it as "unintentionally hilarious film", Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of 'The Hindu' wrote that "How much of 'Konda' is real is a debate for another time. As a film, it takes a lot of patience to sit through it". 'The Times of India' gave a rating of 2.5 out of 5 and felt that 'Konda' is "a typical RGV offering". The critic further stated: "the director used the street theatre-style screenplay for narrating and delivering message-oriented scenes, a sort-after medium used by yesteryear revolutionaries to awaken the masses". 'NTV's Naresh Kota praised the performance of Adith Arun (aka Trigun), while criticizing the writing, direction and music composition of the film.
