Release and reception
The film was initially scheduled to release on 12 October 2005.[6]
Jeevi of Idlebrain.com rated the film two-and-three-quarters out of five and wrote that "The basic point of destiny guiding a couple who just met into wedlock within a few hours is interesting. But the director tried to inject more comedy element (though is pretty hilarious in a couple of tracks) than what is necessary".[7]
