Critical reviews

123telugu.com on reviewing the music of the soundtrack wrote that "The song has a special charm and Armaan Mallik makes it super special with his charming singing. The beat is Indian as Thaman has kept it simple and the tune takes over with the special lyrics by Ram Jogayya Sastry being a special bonus. This song too is an instant charmer and you will surely groove to it more once you see the super stylish visuals."[21]

IndiaGlitz.com stated that "Sastry's knack of writing alliterative lines and poetic thoughts comes to the fore in this delectably-written song.  The phrase 'Kaali kindi puvvu nenu nethinettukuntive' is one of those story-based lines.  Armaan Malik has an effervescent voice and when he rises the crescendo, he does sound a bit like Anurag Kulkarni did in 'Ramuloo Ramulaa'.  Thaman is on a roll and he is not ready to take a break from giving blockbusters."[22]
