Reception[edit | edit source]
Kavya Christopher of The Times of India wrote, "Tailored to be a situational comedy, the story has its share of drama and emotional connections. The script allows scope for the few number of song and dance as well as fight sequences to cater to those who enjoy the larger-than-life scenarios that give you a break from reality".[4] A critic from Chitratara.com wrote, "This is a Pukka (transl. pure) commercial film with love, action, thrill, comedy following at regular intervals".[5]
