Family comedy · released 16 Oct 2026 · Arrow Cinemas
Hardly anyone is talking about it online. Critics rate it 2 to 2.75 out of 5. Naresh, the last 30 minutes and the message about daughters standing on their own feet work, but most critics find the opening slow and the writing weak. Of 244 comments under its review videos, only 22 give a clear opinion on the film. Most ask for other films' reviews, especially Garividi Lakshmi.

Critic reviews
| Critic | Verdict | In brief |
|---|---|---|
| The Sunday Guardian Bhumi Vashisht | mixed | The leads deliver and the last thirty minutes land emotionally, but the film moves sluggishly and its plot is easy to guess. |
| Telugu360 sankar | 2.25/5 | Warm father-daughter core and fine leads, but slow first half and weak writing; the last half hour helps. |
| Filmy Focus Prakash | 2.25/5 | Naresh and Tharun Bhascker make the first half fun, but the second half drags and the climax feels forced. |
| GreatAndhra venkat | 2.0/5 | Good leads and a worthwhile message about choice, undercut by a familiar story, flat romance and uneven comedy. |
| Flickonclick Mohan Nasre | 2.0/5 | Relatable premise and strong Naresh, but a slow first half and padded, weakly written second half. |
| 123telugu | 2.75/5 | Fun, Naresh-driven first half; an overstuffed second half and long wedding episode pull it down to okay. |
| Sakshi | 2.75/5 | Fresh Telangana backdrop, useful message and decent comedy; a predictable love track and loose editing hold it back. |
| TeluguBulletin | 2.75/5 | Strong lead performances in a village family drama, held back by a predictable romance, uneven pace and badly timed comedy. |
| Telugu Cinema (telugucinema.com) | 2.5/5 | Carries a worthwhile message about a father steering his daughter's marriage, but the screenplay lurches between tones without control. |
| Tupaki | 2.25/5 | Good message about daughters and a strong Naresh, but the screenplay is routine and dull, especially later. |
| Eenadu | mixed | Anupama and Naresh shine in the father-daughter emotion, but a stale story, weak romance and flat second half dull the festivities. |
