Reception

A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "Hype is generally inversely proportional to quality. This film proves this. No feverish promos. No signs of any pretensions. No jiggery-pokery. The film’s just plain and direct".

Collecting 37 lakh nett on the opening day, and a total of 2.74 crore nett, the film failed at the box office.
