ETimes rated its social message and emotional core while noting that its themes are presented quite directly. In its review, the publication wrote: “At its core, Sing Geetham is less fantasy and more a reflection on the impact of greed on communities and the environment. Its commentary on urbanization, capitalism and ecological destruction may not be particularly subtle, but it remains effective because it springs from genuine concern rather than preachiness. The heart of the film remains firmly in the right place. With this unconventional musical, Singeetam Srinivasa Rao combines fantasy, social commentary and emotion to deliver a fable that is both timely and heartfelt.”Meanwhile, the film also has a cameo by Vijay Deverakonda.
