Reception

The film received negative reviews from critics. 123 Telugu gave the film a rating of 2.75/5 and wrote "'Sehari' is a passable rom-com that has a good first half and climax. The situational comedy works out well but the film is filled with lag in multiple scenes".[7] Thadhagath Pathi of The Times of India gave the film 2.5/5 and wrote "'Sehari' is not a terrible rom-com, it's just not innovative or fresh either. If you're not bored of the same stories the film industry keeps churning out, this one's for you".[8]

Pinkvilla gave the film a rating of 2 out of 5 and wrote "Abhinav Gomatam, as Varun's friend, is deployed to do the needful. In a film whose writing is consistently silly, Prashanth R Vihari's music is the film's only meritorious aspect. 'Idhi Chala Bagundhile' is enjoyable. The cinematography is another asset".[9] Prakash Pecheti of Telangana Today stated "Although 'Sehari' looks to be a tested trope in the very first glimpse, it has the screenplay that doesn't deviate your attention as an audience. Away from the regular cliched film conversation in a commercial cinema, director Gnanasagar tries to present the comedy in a more organic and subtle manner".[10]
