Reception

Critical response

A reviewer from Sakshi.com wrote "However.. Rashaku did not focus on such things at all. Not even a single scene could be made interesting in the two-hour movie. Another major drawback of the movie is the dialogues. Unnecessarily inserted punch delay is annoying in most cases when it doesn't explode at all".[4] Murali Krishna from The New Indian Express Says "Enough said, Idi Naa Love Story is bland and evokes no emotion, romance other than exasperation of having to watch it for two hours and 12 minutes. Watch at your own risk as it may destroy your love for love stories!".[5] A critic from Samayam wrote "The background music doesn't seem to matter. Cinematography work is good. Some locations are shown beautifully. Editing work is good. It has to be said that there have been no movies with such a weak love story in recent times. Finally, on Valentine's Day, this love story went awry".[6]
