Critical reception[]
Sify wrote "This time-tested theme of a comedy-looking guy turning into a righteous person of an incident still has some scope to generate laughs, engage us but the writers' team has employed old tricks to provide comedy. They have relied more on one-liners."[4] Times of India wrote "Tenali Ramakrishna BA BL is a sloppy courtroom drama that tries too hard to be funny. A huge thumbs down!".[5] The Hindu wrote "Barring a couple of bright moments, this is a boring courtroom drama with a middling narrative".[6] 123Telugu wrote "On the whole, Tenali Rama Krishna is a comedy caper aimed at the target audience of single screens. The film has an impressive first half with good comedy and twists. But the second half is let down because of jaded narration and over the top scenes".[7]
