Reception
Critical response
R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "Vishnuvardhan's performance is one of the highlights of the film. He has played a character that suits his age and stature. He is brilliant throughout particularly in the climax sequence. Navya Nair is exceptional as the vulnerable yet unpredictable Charu who becomes Urmila because of the disorder. Vijaya Raghavendra has done a good job as Alok. He also renders good play back for the E Hrudaya song. Lakshmi Gopalaswamy shines in the small role, while Anant Nag, Ramesh Bhat fill in their respective roles".[2] A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "While it's a pleasing performance by Vishnuvardhan, Navya Nair is at her best and Lakshmi Gopalaswamy, Anant Nag, Vijay Raghavendra excel. Music by Hamsalekha is melodious. Ramesh Babu's camerawork is good".[3] A critic from Sify.com wrote "Two lovely tunes and lyrics have come from national repute music director Hamsalekha. The cinematography by Ramesh Babu is captured very efficiently. This is worth watching for variety and curiosity elements in it."[4]
