Reception
Critical response
Padma Shivamogga from Vijaya Karnataka wrote "Big budget movies can look colorful to the eyes. However, the freshness of this film is mesmerizing. Watch this movie to know other dimensions of entertainment".[7] Ganesh Vaidya from Prajavani says "Background music (Sadhukokila) and songs (music directed by Rajesh Ramnath) are nothing special. On the whole, the question is how much praise should be given to the director who brought it to Kannada without much change so as not to spoil the original film".[8] Sunanya Suresh from The Times of India wrote "This film is definitely a good watch for those who do not want excessive build-ups and instead presents an earnest tale that connects with the heart".[9]
