The Times of India gave the film a rating of two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "Watch the movie if you’re in for a feel-good film that explores relationships on a relatable level and has beautifully rustic visuals".[8] Telangana Today stated that "The film is narrated from the hero’s point of view and every time it takes a leap, the narration keeps the audience gripped".[9] New Indian Express gave the film a rating of two out of five stars and wrote that "Oye Ninne is the recycled version of many old films that portrayed the bava-maradhalu romance for decades now".[10] In addition to this, the movie faced criticism for normalizing, and even validating, rape and child abuse.
