Reception

Sify gave 3/5 stars and wrote "Darshan is back with yet another formula film. The film is a mix of stale plots and unrewarding scenes."[5] The Times of India gave 3/5 stars and wrote "This film, directed by Mahesh Babu, has a masala mix of fights, romance, drama and action that's strictly for Darshan fans."[6] R. G. Vijayasarathy of Rediff gave 2/5 stars and wrote "Abhay is strictly meant for Darshan fans."[7] Bangalore Mirror wrote "A film that will appeal only to Darshan fans but not in a way that they would want to pay and watch again."[8]
