Critical reception

[edit]

"Siddharth is one lucky actor that whatever fate his films might have faced, the songs in them have been top rate. So, with high expectations that one reaches for Bommarillu's audio. And it is also from Devi Sri Prasad, back in form and fettle. Siddharth packs lot of energy in his acting. He does so in his singing. The fun song "Appudo Ippudo" with all the right elements to back it, has Siddharth delivering it in high-pitched warble. His voice has an attractive mix of youthfulness and innocence. Full of zingy beats and lively instrumentation. You will enjoy it despite the absolute predictability. The violin rendition of the film's theme in between is very beautiful. A good one in the album. On the whole, Bommarillu reflects what life is --- fun, mediocrity and inspired moments." wrote IndiaGlitz in its music review of the album.[6]

Idlebrain.com stated that "Music of the film is very good and background music is excellent. The scenes in the first half are so good that songs come as speed breakers to the narration. The songs in second half are excellently blended into the narration with good emotional quotient. The choreography for ‘Bommani Geeste’ song (4th in the film) is exemplary. The pathos song that comes in parts in second half is brilliant."[7]
