Reception

Critical response

Vinay Lokesh of The Times of India gave 3/5 stars and wrote "While the film could have done with a tighter screenplay, this is definitely a film to catch at the theatres this week. Again, the story is emotional, enough to keep you misty eyed, do be prepared."[8] Vivek M. V. of The Hindu wrote "‘Baanadariyalli’ is a missed opportunity as director-writer Preetham Gubbi makes a mess of an interesting premise."[2]

"A Sharadhaa reviewing for New Indian Express rated 3 out of 5 stars. 'Baanadariyalli' is a unique love story that transcends boundaries and linguistic barriers, offering a fusion of suspense, pain, and adventure. The film explores the unusual bond between Vasu, his daughter Leela, and Siddhu, with heartfelt performances by the cast, especially Ganesh and Rangayana Raghu. While the second half could have been faster, the emotional journey in the last 30 minutes resonates with the audience. The film's picturesque settings and diverse songs add to its charm, making it a family-friendly movie that delves into the complexities of love and relationships." [9]

Shashiprasad S. M. of The South First gave 2/5 stars and wrote "'Baanadariyalli' is shallow in almost every aspect of entertainment, just like Leela is seen surfing on shallow waters in the film."[10] Subha. J. Rao of The News Minute wrote "The film [Baanadariyalli], on paper, is about acceptance, moving on, and living life again. That sounds good enough, but the path to get there is laden with cliches galore."[11]
