Critics find a predictable romance; the few comments are kind. Critics rate it 1.5 to 2.5 out of 5: good lead chemistry, Prince Henry's music and a final twist, but a predictable love story and a preachy second half. All four Telugu comments that judge it are positive.

Critic reviews
| Critic | Verdict | In brief |
|---|---|---|
| Asianet News Telugu Aithagoni Raju | 2.5/5 | A routine love story told with some novelty; twists and Sravan work, but the second half bores before a tragic, message-led ending. |
| Filmibeat Telugu Rajababu A | 2.5/5 | A regular love story with fresh treatment and emotional twists that suits youth audiences, though its single-point narrative never reaches the next level. |
| NTV Telugu Bhargav Chaganti | 2.5/5 | Lead chemistry, Prince Henry's music and an emotional climax with a love message work, though repetitive test-the-hero scenes stretch the second half. |
| BigTV Swathi Krish | 2.5/5 | A love-and-mystery attempt with good lead chemistry, rich cinematography and an appealing score, though a predictable plot and slow second half temper it. |
| Cinejosh Rambabu | 1.5/5 | Sravan's confident turn and Prince Henry's songs help, but predictable scenes and a dragging, preachy second half weigh down this debut romance. |
| TV9 Telugu Lakshminarayana Varanasi | mixed | A decent concept and a strong final twist, with lovely Vizag and Goa visuals, but the heroine's secret is easy to guess and scenes repeat. |
| Sakshi | 2.5/5 | A routine romance whose presentation is mildly interesting; the director fails to make the emotions connect, and the second half turns boring. |
| TeluguBulletin | 2/5 | Uninspired, melodramatic writing, artificial rhyming dialogue and unfunny comedy make this predictable romance tiring; only a few songs offer relief. |
