Critical response
Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana from Rediff.com scored the film at 1 out of 5 stars and says "The film raises questions such as, "Is politics just about publicity and money? Is it only bullets that do the talking in the field? The film in short speaks of the death of democracy that we are witnessing. If only the theme was backed by punchy dialogues and dry humour! Babu, who has given films Kurigalu Sir Kurigalu, disappoints this time. Thipparalli Tharlegalu is a letdown". A critic from The New Indian Express wrote "It is a pity to see a director like Rajendra Babu offering a stale flick that has nothing to offer the audience except for long and boring speeches. The much-publicised Kanwarlal character also fails to offer a relief to the audience". A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote  "A higher level of comedy and satire is required for a film like this. Make sure the AC is working and seats are very comfortable in the cinema hall. A couple of hours rest is good on a hot summer day".
