The film has 6 songs composed by Mani Sharma. The song "Okkasari Cheppaleva" is based on the "Love Don't Cost a Thing" by Jennifer Lopez.[4] In an audio review, Sreya Sunil of Idlebrain.com wrote that "Overall, Mani Sarma comes with a score that grows on you slowly and which definitely needs support from the director on how well he translates the audio into vivacious visuals".[4]

Reception

[edit]

Idlebrain.com gave the film 3.25 out of 5 and praised Mahesh Babu for his acting.[5] Sify gave 3 out of five stars and added that "The film lacks a basic story, as there is nothing new."[6] Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu wrote that "Technically speaking, the film gives an 'overdone' feel, especially in using graphic work".<ref>{{Cite web|url=
