Reception
Y Sunita Chowdhary of The Hindu opined that there was nothing new to hold attention. She noted that the entire story had been woven around the re-call concept, which is, "A new concept called ‘Re-call’ election, which means once a politician is voted to power and people are unhappy with him, they needn’t wait for a full five-year term; they can have a re-call poll and vote him out". She felt that there’s nothing to appreciate in music and cinematography also.[6]
