The director used the Kannada film's story and screenplay without making any changes. Some folks may enjoy the leisurely pace of the film.

Other than Tamannaah, the film's other heroines are unimpressive. Some viewers may dislike the film's tragic finale.

Satyadev, as always, was faithful to the character and played admirably, with the exception of the scenes in which he acted in his youth without the mustache and beard.

Tamannaah may appear unglamorous, but she has nailed the character with innocence and energy.

Satyadev and Tamannaah's chemistry worked out wonderfully. The post-marriage scenes looked romantic.

Kalabhairava's music is straightforward. In a film like this, the background music and songs are what draw us in, but the music falls short.

The film is technically impressive. The cinematography is excellent. Editing is also fine.
