Critical response

[edit]

A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "Srujan Lokesh has tried his best, but could have done better. Parvathi Nirbhang hardly has anything to do. However, you can look forward to some catchy tunes by Dharma Vish. Sangeetha Rajeev makes a commendable debut as a singer by rendering the pleasant number ‘Entane Tharagathi…’ Wali's camera work is average".[2] B S Srivani from Deccan Herald wrote "Towards the end, it is soapy mayhem with romance taking a backseat. “Aane Pataaki” had so much to offer but disappoints like the firecracker after which it is named, not going out with a bang but a whimper".[3] A Sharadhaa from The New Indian Express wrote "The only attraction in the songs are some foreign dancers sizzling in shorts. The editing table has done an amateurish job. The Verdict: Filled with old jokes, this is a film people can definitely avoid".[4] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote  "He puts in the effort, but it is a wrong project really. Parvati Nirban’s only expression in the film is a smile and using her photograph instead would have been a cost-saving decision.  The director has a long way to go before he understands how and why films should be made".[5]
