Reception

Critical response

R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "The songs have been stylishly picturised and so are the first fight sequences. Except for the Baa Baare Gopamma song, Hari Krishna's music is uninspiring. Camera work is not exceptional, either. In a nutshell, Vaayuputhra is just a timepass movie which could have been better".[5] A critic from The New Indian Express scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Chiranjeevi makes a grand debut and shows his talent in song and fight scenes. Rebel star Ambareesh's dialogue delivery is good. Aindrita is impressive. Hari Krishna's music is ordinary. Sundaranath Suvarna's camera work is above average".[6]
