Release

The film released on November 4, coinciding with Diwali.[1] Unlike the original, the film was a box office failure, but did not lose money due to the film's shoestring budget.[11][12][1]

Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu compared the film with Tagore.[3] Jeevi of Idlebrain said that "The plus points are music and modern taking. Minus points are predictability in story and no surprise/shocking elements".[1] Full Hyderabad wrote that "Jassie Gift's music is the only point of the movie worth sitting up for".[8]

Legacy

Sarvanand got his role in Vennela (2005) because of his performance in this film.[6]
