Reception

Critical response

A critic from The Times of India rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "This could have been a nice medical thriller, but the trivial treatment makes it fall way short of the finish line".[5] A critic from The New Indian Express wrote that "The title has no relevance too. Subjects like Octopus needs the makers to discuss and not just guess, else they just make a mess and miss the bus".[6] A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "Sadly, instead of a deft medical thriller, all one gets to see is a personal revenge drama with a medical discovery as pretext. Kishore does justice to his role while Tilak matches him. Yagna is just a pretty prop".[7]
