Release[edit]

The film opened in April 2015 to mixed reviews from critics, in contrast to the reports it generate before release. Sify.com gave the film a negative review, citing that it was "amateurish" and that it would have done better if it had "better dialogues, better actors, better screenplay, better production value, better technicalities, better theme and better climax".[6] Likewise, the critic from Times of India wrote "the director is clearly going for a new-age vibe but with one leg rooted firmly in melodrama, the film ends up as a muddled affair".[7]
