Reception[edit]
Sidharth Varma of The Times of India wrote, "The movie tries to cash in on the idiocy of the CB-CID officers, which at most times is far fetched. But it will definitely get the frontbenchers roaring in laughter thanks to the antics of Vivek and his men". He appreciated Rajkumar's cinematography but criticised "the lack of consistency in the plot and screenplay".[3] Behindwoods rated the film 1 star out 5, writing, "The technical work is sub-par and the team has not even bothered to remove the purple tint that appears in most scenes. Music by K S Manoj and G D Prasad are just about ordinary".[4]
