Reception
The album received positive response. IndiaGlitz gave a review stating "Thaman’s a great drummer and his beats in this album stand testimony to that. He’s composed an urban album that has quite a few ‘ear’ning songs with ‘Eyi Raja’, ‘Oopiri Aage’ and ‘Mojjarey’ standing out!".[2] Cinegoer.net gave a review stating "After Kick, Thaman S. composes for this NTR Jr. starrer, Brindavanam. In keeping with the title and possible theme of the movie, an air of celebration and Indianness dominates the music. Some of the songs have nothing new/fresh to offer while the fast-paced folk-inspired numbers are better. Overall, a decent album but nothing earth-shattering."[3] 123telugu.com gave a review stating "Overall the songs of Brindaavanam are fast, most of them soulful, enjoyable and a touch catering to the lovers of mass numbers. Most Telugu music directors have been going the Rahman way focusing on a fast beat while the song is slow. This album is an exception, where the songs are as fast as they can get. Thaman manages to keep everyone interested with his tunes, in spite of the pressure to cater to dance needs of Jr.NTR."[4] greatandhra.com gave a review stating "Overall, the entire album is filled with fast beats, tangy lyrics, peppy vocals. While the entire feel of the album is up and high, it would have balanced the listener’s mind if a proper slow song and a romantic melody was added to it. The heartbeat picks up at all times so the songs may go well with the youngsters but not so much for the family or the matured music lovers."[5]
