Jeevi of Idlebrain.com wrote that "On a whole, Premikulu - made with a novel point - does not live it up".[8] A critic from Rediff.com wrote that "Despite choosing a plot with some potential (lovers failing to identify themselves due to amnesia), she [Jaya] is unable to hold an audience with interesting narration, relying on clichéd comedy instead".[9] A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote that "Eminently worth a miss, and if it's the songs you want to watch it for, there are always the cassettes and CDs".[10]
