Reception

[edit]

A critic from indiainfo.com wrote that "The film is certainly worth a dekho (watch) for those on the look out for clean entertainment".[6] go4i wrote "It's a neat and clean film without any vulgarity, senseless action and violence. The film has comedy too. [..] The first and the second half of the film are balanced, a rare quality these days."[7]
