Vishwa Prasad and Krithi Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, the film, released on September 12th, is running to packed houses and has achieved a monumental success. To celebrate, the makers held a special thank-you meet.

Speaking at the event, Teja Sajja extended his heartfelt thanks to the audience and the media for embracing the film. "I am able to do movies and be here because of your support," he said. "This huge success is a result of the collective support of the audience and the media." He expressed his joy at seeing fans create reels and promote the film. He also gave special credit to director Karthik and producer Vishwa Prasad for making the film possible.
