Reception

The film received Negative reviews from the critics.

Navein Darshan of The New Indian Express gave 1.5 stars out of 5 and stated that "This is a film that bets on its final reveal and feels force-fitted into the feature film format"[3].Thadhagath Pathi of The Times of India gave 2 stars out of 5 and wrote that "Anaganaga O Atihidhi is sadly a thriller with many loopholes in it, but with a better script they could’ve been overlooked. This remake is a case of wasted opportunity with many beats of the original lost in translation."[4]

A critic from 123telugu noted that "But don’t expect anything special."[5]
