Critical reviews[edit]
123Telugu on reviewing the music of the soundtrack wrote that "DSP churns out a mass number which is full on masala number right from the word go. The song is full of punches and DSP has made sure that the audience will have no inhibitions while dancing to it. An out and out dance number, this song will be a rage once Pooja Hegde's glamor and Charan's dance moves are released all over."[14]
IndiaGlitz.com stated that "Devi Sri Prasad consciously chooses the female voice so that the song doesn't have a trace of the post-2000 item song feel. Rela Kumar's voice fits the bill. Chandrabose's lyrics are crazy in a conventional setting. The wonderment of the men at the sight of a beauty, her knack for wearing her naughtiness on the sleeve, etc are also known elements."[15]
