Reception

Critical reception

The Times of India gave 3 out of 5 stars stating "It's Akhil who steadies this rocky ship, while composer Thaman remains the unsung hero of the film for its terrific music score. Be it energy, melody or a sense of calm, Thaman's music is a perfect anchor to the film's story. Mr Majnu may not be as heartwarming as Tholi Prema, but has every element in it to make for an engaging watch at the cinemas".[7]

Firstpost gave 3 out of 5 stars stating "Mr Majnu some well-crafted sequences which allow the film to find its emotional core".[8]

Behindwoods gave 2.5 out of 5 stars stating "Akhil's charisma, Nidhhi's acting and some decent writing makes Mr. Majnu a watchable film.".[9]

The Indian Express gave 2.5 out of 5 stars stating "The film aims to strengthen Akhil Akkineni's brand as a 'chocolate hero' and it works. He has played his role with confidence and swag, and makes even cheesy scenes click".[10]
