Critical reception

Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India  gave the film a rating of 2/5 and wrote "If you are the old-school romantic, who believes that love stories need a lot of sentiments, a little action and the heroine transforming into being just the man's prop, this might be for you". A Sharadhaa, reviewing for The New Indian Express, said "In this slow-paced film, Aru Gowda looks diminished. He needs to work on his screen presence in his forthcoming projects. Kavya Shetty has put in an effort but can do better over time. The rest of the cast, including Chandrashekar, Devaraj and Sudha Rani, do well individually but fail as a supporting cast.
Melodies by Sridhar V Sambram are placed at the right points, but they do not save the film". Shyam Prasad S  reviewing for Bangalore Mirror  rated the film 1.5 out of 5 stars, and wrote "It is an ordinary film made worse by its overconfidence".
