Reception
[edit]In his review for The Hindu, Gudipoodi Srihari called Janaki Weds Sriram a "feel-good story". He wrote that Rohit gave a satisfactory performance but Gazala stole the show. "Flexible that she is an actress, she suits any kind of role".[3] In a more mixed review, Jeevi of Idlebrain.com felt that the story was mix of successful films like Manasantha Nuvve and Nuvve Kavali. He felt that the climax was very cinematic and unconvincing and the film got boring at times.[4] Zamin Ryot's Griddaluru Gopalrao, on the other hand, termed the film "very bad". Gopalrao opined that while story started with an interesting premise, the film lost its steam as it progressed.[5]
