Telugu 360: "Saripodaa Sanivaram is an action film but not your typical one..It has an average first half but a gripping second half with a unique storyline. Nani and SJ Surya shine with standout performances in this face-off themed film. Vivek Athreya delivers a smart screenplay with adequate wit and action,though the film suffers from a lengthy runtime that occasionally results in flat storytelling. Overall, it’s a watchable action drama. Give it a try."
Sakshi Post: " The characterisations are the film's strongest asset. SJ Suryah’s portrayal stands out, delivering an excellent performance, while Nani is comfortable in a role that plays to his strengths. The background score adds intensity to the action sequences, further enhancing their appeal. Despite its shortcomings, the film offers enough to warrant a watch, particularly for fans of the genre. It's an average entertainer that serves as a decent timepass." ‘Saripodhaa Sanivaaram’ Trailer Reactions: Netizens Go Gaga Over Nani’s Action Mode in Vivek Athreya’s Directorial!

M9News: "Vivek Athreya fails to create a unique characterisation for Nani’s (Surya’s) role, which should have been a key requirement for a script like this. Except for his anger issues and his promise to fight only on Saturdays, there are no traits that make this character exciting or special. This is a significant drawback. However, the casting of SJ Suryah as a psychotic police official is a brilliant choice. Vivek Athreya effectively utilizes him, which significantly benefits the film."
