Jeevi of Idlebrain.com opined that "The film is one of the worst films that are made in the recent past. There is no imagination in screenplay or direction". Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu wrote that "Saikiran's character looks foolish. Srikant, playing a sadist role, is unimpressive, particularly in closeup shots" and that "Shaheen is a mere doll". A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote that "Darling Darling has a plot so complicated that only two persons in the cast finally understand what has happened, and those two do not include the heroine or the hero".
