In its review of Veera Simha Reddy, News18 gave the film 3 out of 5 stars. “The power-packed dialogues and high-octane action sequences are highlights of this movie. Still, there are loopholes in the storyline, which include not properly utilising comedians like Brahmanandam and Ali. In addition to the lack of comic sequences, it feels that the director has relied on a clichéd storyline, devoid of any interesting elements,” read an excerpt from the review.
