Reception
  • The album was much appreciated with 123telugu callind it "Refreshingly New".[4]
  • IndiaGlitz in its review noted that "Three of the six songs were tuned with melody base (Madhurimave..., Varala Vana.. and Bangaru Konda...) while two are tuned with heavy metal genre (Ko antey Koti... The title song and the last song 'Deham Daaham...' belongs to this kind of heavy metal music.) One song Aagipo was tuned with good fusion of guitar, violin and percussion instruments. So, four out of six songs are melodious and soothing to ears, while two would be loved by present generation youth".[5]

Release

The film was given an A certificate by the Censor board due to the violence and unsavoury language.[6][7] The film was released on 28 December 2012.[8][9][10]

Reception

Critical response

The film received mixed response from critics.

  • Avad.M of 123telugu.com has given a rating of 2.75 out of 5 stating "Ko Antey Koti, which could have been a decent thriller, is seriously let down by poor execution. Super performances by Sri Hari and Sharwanand are sure shot plus points. On the flip side, lack of thrilling moments,bad character justification and a weak first half are major let downs. Finally, Ko Antey Koti is just a below average treat."[11]
  • News18 noted that "It is definitely one of the best Telugu films of the recent past. But what makes this strikingly different film uninspiring is its borrowed inspiration from the west."[12]
