Soundtrack

Soundtrack was composed by Ilaiyaraaja.[3] The audio launch was held at Annapurna Studios on 31 July 2004. Several film celebrities attended the event.[4] The song "Endhirayyo" was based on Raja's own Tamil song "Maanguyile" from Karagattakaran.

Release

Idlebrain gave the film a rating of two-and-a-half out of five and wrote that "The plus points of the film are performance of Mohan Babu and music by Ilayaraja. The main drawback of the film is old-fashioned narration and taking".[1] Full Hyderabad stated that "Shrill drama, violent costumes and blaring choreography – everything the posters promise you, and nothing you don’t see coming".[5]
