He appreciated the storyline, performances of the leads and camerawork of the film.[8] Ajay Bashyam of Full Hyderabad opined that "Right from the name (ouch!), everything about Naa Manasista... Raa! is filmy. It's an old problem – the story starts off pretty okay and has enough steam to carry it till the interval, then there is the twist [...] and then the writer keeps coming up with new problems just to pull along the film for the second half".[9]

    A writer from

    News18 attributed the film's failure with the audience's rejection of Soundarya in a negative role.[10][11]
