Another post said, “What a soulful narrative this one is @N_Phanindra . 2nd Half enriches the characterization and the climax will make you clap without any effort. One of the most poetic, layered , emotional, philosophical, righteous, non judgemental takes on love. #8vasantalu soaks you in heart.”

8 Vasantalu Twitter (X) Review: What Viewers Didn’t Like
While many admired the emotions and visuals, others were disappointed with the film’s pace and storytelling in the second half. A few felt the movie lost its grip after a strong start. A user wrote, “#8Vasantalu: The pretentiousness of the film’s second half has completely spoiled the mood it has tried to create. Rich in visuals, but painfully boring in narration. Ananthika Sanilkumar gives a fine performance.”

Another tweet rated it 2.75 stars and said, “#8Vasantalu boasts a strong core idea and a stellar performance by Ananthika Sanilkumar, especially pre-interval. However, its slow pace and an unbearable second half dilute the impact. A film with promise, but struggles to stay engaging Rating :2.75/5.”
