Reception
[edit]Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu wrote that "The film can be summed up in two words: Violence Unlimited".[3] A critic from Sify wrote that "The problem is that Uday is miscast as an action hero and the director is also not comfortable with this genre of movies. They are unsure about themselves which hinders the progress of narration".[4]
