Reception

''The Times of India'' rated the film 2.5/5 and wrote, "Though the film is made on a tight budget, the director’s attempt to tackle the subject of mindless idolization of Godmen and fake babas is laudable." 123telugu called the film "thought provoking" and stated: "It nicely captures the innocence with which people blindly follow many fake ‘Babas’ these days. The movie is entertaining and captivating in the second half. Tighter screenplay and better narration in the first half would have greatly helped matters."
