Critical reviews
123Telugu on reviewing the music of the soundtrack wrote that "The soulful song is all about the tensions and problems that the wives go through when their husbands are away. What clicks with the song is the tune. Though its sound familiar, the rhythmic nature hits you instantly. Ram Jogayya Sastry’s lyrics touch your heart as this Thaman composition will leave its mark for years to come."

IndiaGlitz.com stated that "The lyrics are stuffed with strong meaning. 'Naa talaraatalo kalatalu raayku' takes the cake. The alliterative 'Taalibottu talusukoni tarali tarali raara penimitee' is a superb line. Thaman's sound is deliberately mellowed. Yet, it's intense. This one is a mood-based song and is difficult to be appreciated in its entirety outside the context of the movie. Kaala Bhairava's voice has the earnestness of a Kailash Kher when it comes to evoking pity as well as inspiring faith."
