Reception[edit]
A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "With repackaged content and crude execution, one has little to lose by skipping the film".[1] A critic from The Times of India rated the film two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "Director Atharv Arya tackles a relevant subject, but the treatment remains mediocre. Tabla Nani shines in his role as Dharmanna, while Prem and Manvitha deliver commendable performances within their limited screen time".[2] A critic from Cinema Express gave the film the same rating and wrote that "Appa I Love You is a film that might prompt a few to reconsider their approach with their parents and in-laws, especially regarding adoption. However, the film could have benefitted from a fresh approach".[3] A critic from Times Now rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "Despite its strong message at the end, Appa I Love You emerges as a drama that struggles to retain your interest in it".[4]
