Reception
editSuhas Sistu from The Hans India gave rating 3/5 stars and wrote that "'Average Student Nani' is a delightful family drama that resonates with audiences. Pawan Kumar Kothuri has proven his mettle as a hero, director, and producer, successfully delivering a film that is both entertaining and meaningful. The positive reception from viewers underscores the film's appeal, marking it as a notable success in the current cinema landscape".[6]
Nelki Naresh Kumar from Hindustan Times Telugu wrote that "The routine storyline was a minus for an average student. In the first half, the comedy was lightened in the college episodes where the scenes in the backdrop of Nani's family were funny. It would have been better if the scene where Nani changes was written with some more depth".[7]
A critic from News18 wrote that "Director Pawan Kumar is successful in portraying the struggles of an average student, belonging to a middle-class family. His direction beautifully amalgamates the various emotions shown, while the love triangle gives more depth to it. Pawan was able to give a realistic depiction of a young struggling student. The two female leads add glam and charm to the release".[8]
