A critic from The Hindu opined, "The director has nothing new to offer as the film unfolds on predictable lines".[2] A critic from Sify wrote, "Toli Choopulone is a letdown. This banal love story has not been worked out properly. Added to that the lead pair Kalyan Ram and Akansha are total disasters, as they cannot emote".[4] However, Jeevi of Idlebrain.com gave the film a rating of three out of five stars and praised Kalyan Ram's performance and the comedy.[5] Telugu Cinema wrote "[...] Tholichoopulone is weak in all the technical aspects and the hero, heroines' performance is just average. First half of the movie is OK with comedy and characters establishment. But the second half of the film is not that interesting. Sunil's comedy is the only entertainment of the movie".[6]
