Thadhagath Pathi of The Times of India rated the series 3.5/5 stars and wrote, "Kotha Poradu is bold and fresh. It is sure to win you over if you enjoy new and real content.[4] A critic from VoxSpace wrote, "Coming from the same school of thought [as Story Discussion and Nirudyoga Natulu], Anvesh Michael with Kotha Poradu creates a well-observed dramedy about the intricacies of social life in a small village far from any influence of globalization".[5] Srivathsan Nadhadhur of Binged rated the series 6/10 and wrote, "Kotha Poradu works despite its limitations because of its racy screenplay. The episodes are crisply edited, the characters are established quickly".[6]
