Reception

edit

Thadhagath Pathi of The Times of India praised the narration and added that "The way Mallik connects a mathematical equation to life is hilarious and relatable. And that’s where all the logic lies!"[8] Pinkvilla gave a rating of 2.5 out of 5. The critic wrote that "While the writing tries to bring out the insecurities of its characters, it doesn't quite rise above stock scenes. A beach date here, a cinema outing there. The treatment is also Gautham Menon-esque in the sense that Kittu is floored by Jasmine's beauty like a typical Menon hero."[9]

Film Companion's Sankeertana Varma cited it as "a teenage romance with all the trappings of the genre, but none of the rewards".[10] Rajitha Chanti of TV9 Telugu called it a "feel good love story".[11]
