Reception

Andhra Today wrote "Director Chandra Mahesh's deft handling of scenes expressing love between Vamsi and Mahalakshmi are quite entertaining. Brahmanandam's comedy is worthy of mention. All the actors and actresses do live up to their roles. Music by Sri Lekha with good score and lyrics feature well picturized songs. The songs may even top the charts. Photography by Jairam is superb. On the whole, Krishna Murali's dialogues surpass and dominate the efforts of all other departments of the film". Telugu Cinema felt "second half drags. Some scenes can be chopped off. Similarities are there of ANR’s Amarajeevi" but praised Posani's dialogues.
