Manu Charitra received mixed reviews from critics and audience. Srivathsan Nadadhur of OTTplay gave it 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote,"On the whole, Manu Charitra is a romantic drama that has a simple storyline. Manu Charitra moves back and forth in time, and the screenplay is decent. But the biggest drawback of Mano Charitra is that it lacks novelty. But Manu Charitra is a big project in Shiva Kandukuri's career, and he does full justice to his role. Megha Akash gets a mature role, and she impresses. Good emotions in the first half and a simple narrative without many boring scenes make this film a passable watch."
Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India has given it a rating of 2 out of 5 stars and wrote 'Manu Charitra feels like a film that’s stuck in time. And as much as there’s no harm in a flawed protagonist with a seemingly golden heart (despite the stalking tendencies), there must be another way of telling such a tried and tested tale.
123Telugu gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote 'From start to end, Manu Charitra is Shiva Kandukuri’s show.'
Venkat Arikatla of Greatandhra rated the film 1.75 out of 5 stars and wrote ""Manu Charitra" is yet another example of the aimless youth-oriented films that are currently reaching theaters. When the storyline is weak, copying any hit film does not guarantee an engaging watch."
