editReception
editA critic of Maharashtra Times said, "The characters in this movie speak Ahirani. All those dialects are not easily understood. But even in Satish's 'Gabhri's Rain' there were characters who spoke a different dialect. But the farmer's pain reached us. Why can't the audience 'relate' to Kavadu's character here. Moreover, even when a strong actor like Upendra is in this role, this role basically does not have much scope in the story".[4] Aparna Pallavi from Down to Earth opined "The movie is worth watching, because the problem of religious persecution of tribals and forced conversions is relatively less documented in films; and also for its excellent music and performances".[5]
