The ETimes review says, “Returning after a gap of three years, Akhil Akkineni settles comfortably into his first full-fledged rural role. He underlines the character for much of the film before delivering his strongest performance in the emotionally-charged climax.

Sivaji, despite an effective screen presence, feels somewhat underutilized.”DISCLAIMER: Box office numbers and data in this article are collected from public and industry sources.
