Critical reception
The Times of India gave it 3 stars out of 5 and called it "a compact film worth watching at least once".[5] The New Indian Express wrote that director Mahesh Rao "tells us a tragic tale of love and fate with great sensitivity and that he has managed to retain much of the melodrama of the original flick in his remake".[6] Sify wrote, "The story and screenplay is definitely impressive and the director has to be credited for sketching the movie in the right way" and called the film "definitely worth a weekend".[7]
