== Reception ==
Ch. Sushil Rao of ''[[The Times of India]]'' said that "Over all, it is a fun movie but for the cinematography. It does not give you the feel that you are watching the big picture. Srikanth slips into his role well and the comedy most of the times is not lost on the audience".<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 February 2014 |title=Malligadu Marriage Bureau Review by The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/telugu/movie-reviews/malligadu-marriage-bureau/movie-review/30004423.cms |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220421015805/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/telugu/movie-reviews/malligadu-marriage-bureau/movie-review/30004423.cms |archive-date=21 April 2022 |access-date=31 May 2022 |website=The Times of India}}</ref> A critic from ''[[The Hans India]]'' opined that "The movie is not unique, but a good family entertainer.
