Critical reception

edit

Sify wrote "To put it politely, A.Venkatesh's story and presentation falls flat as he has tried to introduce a raw newcomer as a larger-than-life hero which is hard to stomach and quite irritating."[2] Rediff wrote "Venkatesh's screenplay has the right mix, even if the item and romantic songs prove a headache in their placement. Well aware of what a new hero's launch vehicle should be, he has set out to provide a good fare which satisfies everyone's appetite."[3] Behindwoods wrote "If the story line doesn't sound tiring enough, there is lot more lined up for the whole 150 minutes. Like lackadaisical direction, atrocious editing, tawdry comedy track, and lame music."[4]
