But the most descriptive review was given by The Times of India, which stated, “Director Karunakaran extracts good performances from his actors, but can’t come up with a refreshing plot. It looks like the director hasn’t really come out of his Tholi Prema hangover as he dishes out yet another one-sided love saga but fails to come up with a valid and logical reason to make a Gen Z lad to hold back his feelings for his lover until the last moment. However, he compensates it all by adding loads of fun moments in the film, and the screenplay does have its share of some touching moments.”
Well Begun

Times of India reviewed, “The film belongs to hard-core Prabhas fans as the movie is stylish and visually rich but not much in content”. Also, NDTV review states, Rebel serves up fare for the mass audience. “The film will be definitely liked by Prabhas’ fans. Watch it for the dancing talent of Tamannaah Bhatia and the acting skills of Prabhas.”
