Gathering:-

Deccan Messenger expressed "Just the chief knows why he set the film during the 1960s and named it as Vedha. There are no defenses for his imaginative choices in the film" and "Shivaraj  kumar's 100th film Jogayya failed in the wake of conveying enormous promotion. His 125th film is good to go to meet a comparable destiny. Notwithstanding, the carefully prepared entertainer can't be faulted for the chief's bumbles." Noted pundit Shuklaji from The New Moment noticed "The film is bolting in parts yet a greater part of it is defective and convincing just on a superficial level."

Sridevi S of The Hours of India gave 3.5 out of 5 stars and expressed "Vedha manages an immaculate, delicate subject of youngster misuse. It is an ideal mix of business components with a solid message about the badgering looked by ladies consistently. The portrayal might have been something more, however the message and shocking exhibitions keep the film afloat."Y. Maheswara Reddy of Bangalore Mirror gave 3.5 out of 5 stars and composed that the film is "should watch" for Shivaraj kumar's fans. Latha Srinivasan of India Today gave 2 out of 5 stars.
