SoundtrackThe songs are composed by Arjun Janya.[3] Regarding the songs, a critic from Rediff wrote that "While Nenapu is a melodious composition, the other songs -- by Arjun -- are just okay. Some of them could have been done away with".[4]
ReceptionA critic from the Bangalore Mirror noted that "The director’s non-linear narration turns out to be the biggest asset of the film".[5] A critic from Rediff gave the film a rating of three out of five stars and stated that "Colloquial dialogues by Arvind is another strong point. But the film could have had a better screenplay".[4] References
