The screenplay is good elevating the emotional elements, and the direction showed spark following the narrative flow without deviating from the main topic. The film's conclusion brings a sense of shock leaving all pondering over the happenings.

The dialogue is natural and effectively captures the accents of the border districts of Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh, and Chikballapur, Karnataka.

Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao's editing, however, suffers from an abundance of repetitive scenes, hindering the pace and smooth flow of the narrative.

The cinematography by K Shiva Sankar Vara Prasad, Mohan Chary, and Ashkar Ali captures the rural setting realistically. Prince Henry's music is commendable, with a few melodious songs shot beautifully in natural locations. The background score is decent.
