Reception

Critical response

Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India scored the film at 2 out of 5 stars and says "If you are expecting some of the magic of the vintage Dorai-Bhagwan films, this might not really live up to the expectations. But if you want some soppy emotions and retro style filmmaking, you might like parts of it."Vijaya Karnataka scored the film at 2 out of 5 stars and says "Traveler Vijay has done well in emotional situations. Shivrajkumar, Puneeth, Raghavendra Rajkumar and Vijaya Raghavendra have sung for the first time in a single film. Those who like retro style cinema can watch cinema."
