[5] Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India gave 3/5 stars and wrote "Aswathama delivers what it promises – a riveting story and oodles of action.

[6] Y. Sunita Chowdhary of The Hindu praised the action sequences, but found the storyline being "ridden with a lot of predictability.

Naga Shourya leads from the front and is superb in his action avatar, but the film bogs down in the second half with predictable scenes and hurried up climax.
