Reception

Hemanth Kumar CR writing his review for The News Minute, wrote: "The series is a roller-coaster ride, and Anish Kuruvilla has a stern control over the narrative [...] However, once the story crosses the tipping point, it turns into a rewarding experience for all the emotional investment that it demands from the viewers."^[5]

Pratyush Parusuraman of Film Companion stated: "The beats of the story are inherently dramatic, but in the hands of Anish Kuruvilla, it also becomes incredibly stylish, with vignette frames, yellow flares, and a rousing score."^[6]

123Telugu.com, rated the series 2.5/5 and wrote: "Gods of Dharmapuri is a well-made web series with a rustic backdrop and gritty performances. The world of Dharmapuri, performances, and narration are good assets."^[7]
