Production and release

The film began production in early 2021.[3] Anji and Sriram were to work together on a Tamil film and came together instead for this film, which is based on an event in producer Achut Ramarao's life.[4] This film marks the directorial debut of cinematographer Anji and is his 50th film as a cinematographer.[5][6] The film is about the reunion of 10th standard classmates.[7] Avika Gor plays a character older than herself.[8] The film was shot in Chikmagalur, Hyderabad, Rajahmundry, Sri Lanka and the United States.[9][10]

10th Class Diaries was theatrically released on 1 July 2022. Initially, the film was scheduled to be released on 4 March 2022.[11] It was later pushed back to 24 June 2022, before postponing to the current date.[12]

Reception

A critic from The Times of India opined that "What works in favour of the film is its light-hearted humour, the effervescent feeling of love, cinematic and peppy vibe after the interval and impressive performances by the lead and supporting actors".[1] A critic from 123Telugu wrote that "On the whole, 10th Class Diaries is an okayish movie that works only in parts. Comedy by Vennela Ramarao and a few emotional scenes are fine to watch".[13]

Calling it "mixed memories," a reviewer from NTV appreciated the storyline and cinematography but pointed out uninspiring screenplay and music as its minus points.[14] Sanju of Sakshi felt that despite faltering at times, Anji has succeeded in delivering a good film in his directorial debut.[15] Aithagoni Raju of Asianet News Telugu opined that 10th Class Diaries takes the viewers down their memory lanes.[16] In a more critical review, ABP Desam rated 1/5, writing that the screenplay tests the patience of audience.[17]
