Reception

A critic from Idlebrain.com rated the film 1 out of 5 and wrote that "The positive points of the film are Srihari's performance and the main flashback episode. The narration of this film is very contrived. This film suffers from bad direction and screenplay".^[4] A critic from Sify wrote that "Srihari is back after a long break in this age-old revenge saga which is an action packed drama. This rehashed story has no sense or logic and has no twists in the climax".^[5] A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote that "Guri is completely a one-man show. That doesn't mean that there was only a single person in the entire theater. It means that it's Srihari all the way. He's given a good performance".^[6]
