Reception
[edit]A critic from The Times of India rated the film 2+1⁄2 out of 5 stars and wrote that "Vivek Raj, who doubles as director and hero in his maiden venture, has selected a good story but fails to impress with poor script and amateurish narration".[4] A critic from Rediff.com gave the film a rating of one out of five stars and wrote that "In a nutshell, this 'hangama' is best avoided".[5] A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "Vivek would do better to enroll in a film school. Time the film chamber acted on it’s promise requiring newbies to be trained before setting them loose among the unsuspecting audience".[1] V. S. Rajapur of IANS gave the film a rating of 1 out of 5 stars and wrote that "Give Preethi Hangama a miss".[6] A critic from Indiaglitz gave the film a rating of 6 out of 10 stars and wrote that "Compared to various inconsequential films of today Vivek Raj's film Preethiya Hangama is fair. The screenplay tautness should have been there and no point in explaining what the characters are up to".[7]
