Veteran actor Tanikella Bharani praised the film's wholesome value, stating:
“It has been a while since we saw a good film that children and parents can watch together. Praveen and Divya have produced this wonderfully, and young Jayanth is exceptionally talented with a very bright future. A good film like this deserves to succeed, and I am sure it will.”
Chief guest MLC Sripal Reddy drew from his experience as a former mathematics teacher, emphasizing the societal importance of the project:
“Films like this are extremely rare. As a former math teacher, I know how crucial stories addressing children's psychology and unique talents are. Children, parents, and teachers alike must watch this movie.”
