==Critical reception== Upon the release, Jeevi of ''Idlebrain.com'' gave 3/5 stating "NTR is improving from film to film. To put in a more frank way, people started accepting NTR as his number of films is increasing (remember the old adage - tinaga tinaga vemu teeyanundu)". ''Telugucinema.com'' stated "The film is below the expectations in all the senses. Songs in New Zealand are ok. Other songs are not up to the mark".<ref name="T">{{cite web|title=Subbu|last=Sri|url=http://www.telugucinema.com/c/publish/moviereviews/subbu.php|work=Telugucinema.com|accessdate=5 October 2013|archive-date=7 October 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131007015852/http://www.telugucinema.com/c/publish/moviereviews/subbu.php|url-status=live}}</ref> ''Andhra Today'' wrote "The director makes a grand appearance on the celluloid to eulogize and compare it with several previous legends of love such as Devadas-Parvathi, and Laila-Majnu, but the movie is far from living up to them. The story is a drag and can test the patience of the audience. NTR may disappoint his audience, in this second movie. Like most bollywood starlets, Sonali Joshi may turn out to be a one-film wonder. Music by Mani Sarma is not very impressive".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.andhratoday.com/movie/subbu.htm|title=SUBBU|website=Andhra Today|access-date=1 January 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020615150529/http://www.andhratoday.com/movie/subbu.htm|archive-date=15 June 2002}}</ref> The movie was an average grosser at the box office.
