ETimes rated ‘Daaku Maharaaj’ with a solid 3.5 out of 5 and our review reads, “Nandamuri Balakrishna delivers a commanding performance as Sitaram/Daaku Maharaaj, convincingly embodying the duality of his character. His intensity shines in the action sequences, evoking echoes of his iconic roles in Samarasimha Reddy and Narasimha Naidu. The Rayalaseema references, a hallmark of his career, are unmistakable. Bobby Deol, making his Telugu debut as antagonist Balawanth Singh Thakur, brings a menacing presence to the screen. However, his character could have been developed further, with a stronger backstory and more venom to make him a formidable match for Daaku Maharaaj. Pragya Jaiswal and Shraddha Srinath provide commendable support, each adding emotional layers to the narrative. Chandhini Chowdary, Ravi Kishan, Shine Tom Chacko, Urvashi Rautela, Sachin Khedekar, Sandeep Raj and others, although talented, appeared in limited roles.”
