Not knowing that Shankar and the henchmen are headed for Hyderabad, Seenu makes efforts to convince the media to bring the plight of the villagers to the national consciousness, but the media is not interested as they feel that it is not sensational news. A few days later, at the high court, the judge declares the verdict in favour of Seenu and the villagers, but adds that Aggarwal has claimed that certain villagers who are working abroad have shown their support for the factory. If they cannot prove that their support was faked by Aggarwal within the next five days, the verdict will then go in favour of Aggarwal and the villagers will lose their lands. Since the villagers, who have denied supporting the factory, are abroad and cannot come to Hyderabad within five days to rebut Aggarwal's claims, and the verdict is to be decided within five days, Seenu decides to take drastic measures to sensationalize the issue. He, Lakshmi, Malli, and the inmates of the old-age home block water supply to Hyderabad by sitting on the pipelines which carry water to Hyderabad. With the plight of the Hyderabad people due to lack of water supply having gained national attention, Seenu comes out of the pipeline after a few days and highlights the villagers' plight in an emotionally charged speech to the media, which is telecast nationwide and moves many people. | Not knowing that Shankar and the henchmen are headed for Hyderabad, Seenu makes efforts to convince the media to bring the plight of the villagers to the national consciousness, but the media is not interested as they feel that it is not sensational news.

The film is set to take record openings and has everything that we expect from a star hero like Chiranjeevi. He makes a thumping comeback and proves that even at this age he can give every star hero a run for their money. If you ignore the predictable story line and dull climax, Chiru’s one man show, superb songs, and a good message makes this film a good watch this festival season."<ref>{{cite web |date=2017-01-14 |title=Khaidi No 150 telugu movie review {{!}} Khaidi No 150 Movie Review & Rating {{!}} Chiranjeevi Khaidi No 150 Movie Review {{!}} Khaidi No 150 telugu cinema review {{!}} Khaidi No 150 Film Review {{!}} Khaidi No 150 Telugu Review {{!}} Khaidi No 150 Twitter Updates {{!}} Khaidi No 150 movie First Day TalK {{!}} Khaidi No 150 Review {{!}} Khaidi No 150 USA Talk |url=https://www.123telugu.com/reviews/khaidi-no-150-telugu-movie-review.html |access-date=2021-11-20 |website=123telugu.com |language=en}}</ref> [[The Indian Express|Indian Express]] gave the film 3.5 writing "DSP songs do pump up the narrative but a slight disappointment is that dancer Chiru of Indra and Tagore is quite not in shape for a new step.

Great Andhra gave the film 3 out of 5 writing "Over all, "Khaidi No 150" is a film that has some nice mass moments and has dealt on a topical issue with cliched script.
