IndiaGlitz gave the soundtrack 3.25 out of five stars, calling it "electrifying" and "different offering in part, not totally".[13] Oneindia gave it three out of five stars, selecting "Seethakalam", "Come to the Party" and "Super Machi" as the film's best songs.[14] Jeevi of Idlebrain.com praised Devi's background score composition.[15] News18 too lauded Devi's work for the album.[16]
