Critic reviews
| Critic | Verdict | In brief |
|---|---|---|
| BigTV Madhu Sudhan | 2.75/5 | A good point about how small suspicions spiral, with nice lead chemistry and investigation episodes; the second-half screenplay needed tightening. |
| 10TV Saketh U | 2.5/5 | An investigative murder mystery with real village locations and good visuals; the thriller point works, though needless comedy and a song stretch it. |
| Filmibeat Telugu Rajababu A | 2.5/5 | A rural crime investigation drama helped by its music; some first-half lag, but fans of village thrillers may like it. |
| Asianet News Telugu Aithagoni Raju | 2.5/5 | Mixes a murder investigation with spiritual and philosophical ideas; the gradual reveal intrigues but the screenplay slows. Mainly for mystery fans. |
| NTV Telugu Bhargav Chaganti | 2.25/5 | Good premise, strong camerawork and background score, but a draggy first half and a loose screenplay blunt the thrills. |
| Cinejosh Rambabu | 2.25/5 | A routine murder mystery: the spiritual angle is dropped early, budget limits show and repetitive scenes slow it, despite good music and visuals. |
| Filmy Focus Phani Kumar | 1.5/5 | A good idea, but beyond the opening and the twist reveal the direction is lazy and the screenplay dull; a wasted effort. |
| TV9 Telugu Lakshminarayana Varanasi | positive | A murder mystery with a philosophical layer that feels different; Dinesh Tej and Dhasvika impress and the score sets the mood, though editing drags. |
| 123telugu | 2.5/5 | Thriller ingredients, performances and technical work help, but slow narration and stretched scenes limit the pull; go in with low expectations. |
| Sakshi | 2.5/5 | Keeps the killer hidden till the end in a Malayalam-style mystery, but dull police investigation scenes stretch the first half. |
