Reception
[edit]Critical reception
[edit]Santosh Bhingarde of Sakal, who gave three stars out of five, wrote: "There are not many turns and twists in the film. Also, the pace of the film is somewhat slow. The story of the film moves forward slowly in a straight and simple manner and we get immersed in Vitthal's devotion. Overall, this film is a description of the glory of Vitthal."[3] Reshma Raikwar of Loksatta wrote: "It is a simple story of a god and a devotee, apart from this the does not offer anything else."[4]
