Reception
A critic from The Hindu wrote that "All in all, Andhra Pori doesn’t satisfy anyone, the treatment is average and superficial. Surprising that Raj Madiraju who dealt with a far more complicated script like Rushi loses out while striking a balance between high emotion and romance".[5] A critic from 123telugu wrote that "On the whole, Andhra Pori marks a decent debut for Akash Puri. This young actor has a bright future and would be good if he takes a break and comes back well trained in all department".[6]
