"[1] The Times of India wrote that "Director Sripuram Kiran effectively drives home the point that marital bond is more important than an involvement with any person".[7] A review in News 18 stated "Nanditha, who shined with her performance in films like Prema Katha Chitram, 'Lovers', fails to impress here."[8]
