Reception

Jeevi of Idlebrain.com wrote that "Krishnamma Kalipindi Iddarini is a well-intended film that stays away from forced commercial elements and sticks to the basic plot. Though the movie starts as a teen love story, there is nobility in the way story progresses".^[10] A critic from 123telugu opined that "On the whole Krishnamma Kalipindi Iddarini is a well made emotional love story. Sudheer Babu and Nandhita’s stunning performance are major assets".^[11]
