Release and reception

''Kshemamga Velli Labhamga Randi'' was released on 4 February 2000. ''Sify'' said the film "is far superior to the original". Jeevi of ''Idlebrain.com'' said, "In a way, this film is very good one if you prefer watching a pure comedy. But if you prefer a story oriented film, this film might fail deliver the goods! But for Brahmanandam and Kovai Sarala this film stands as another feather in their cap". ''Andhra Today'' wrote "In these days of inflation when dual incomes are required to meet the expenses of the family, the story is neither strong nor does it offer much novelty. The scenes peppered with good deal of humor sails very smoothly. The deft handling by the director is impressive."
