Release

A critic from The Times of India gave the film a rating of three-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "The first half appeared to drag a bit, but as the mystery deepens, it could be an edge-of-the-seat thriller".[3] A critic from 123telugu gave the film two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that " There is absolutely no logic in much of the film and you can safely stay away from this ‘thriller’".[4] Full Hyderabad gave the film a rating of six-and-a-half out of ten and wrote that "In all, this is a rather decent attempt, but heavily flawed. Watch it if you care enough to be non-judgemental".[5]
