Reception
[edit]Full Hyderabad wrote "Kodi Ramakrishna ties himself in knots at every turn and to untie himself he introduces more and more characters to such an extent that we keep wondering all through if any more characters will come on the scene and surprise. The surprise element is not restricted to the number of characters alone - you also are wondering (figuratively speaking) who Chakravarti would marry, with four heroines on the scene. Ultimately, however, the veteran surprises you with a twist that even the stupidest of directors would not have conceived of".[3] Andhra Today wrote "The story is too simplistic and appears to be a wrong choice by the director. Generally most love stories are ridden with hurdles and this movie runs on too smooth a course with nothing to contend for. Ganesh's sacrifice too is typical text-book style bereft of any novelty. Sudhaka and Babu Mohan's comedy track also falls short of the entertainment it is meant to provide. In addition, the double meaning dialogue make it quite undesirable. Character portrayalwise too none in the star cast have been afforded much opportunity. Deepthi excels in her dance as the woman in love with Ganesh. Music score by Devi Prasad is excellent. Songs seem to be the movie's redeeming factor".[4]
