Reception

[edit]

IndiaGlitz praised the performances of actors and music.[5] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote "Bambara Kannaley" is a love story without much love. Romance is the basis for everything that happens in the film but the romance itself occupies very little of its running time. That by itself is not a bad thing. But the rest of the running time is occupied by things that range from the uninteresting to the outright bad".[6] Lajjavathi of Kalki wrote looking at the fresh approach in several scenes, we can expect aesthetic films from Parthi Bhaskar but panned the climax for wasting reels around 15 minutes.[7]
