Film critic Jalapathy Gudeli tweeted, “US: With a first weekend gross of $1.6 million ( 13 Cr), #Dasarabecame Nani's highest-grossing film. Previous highest was 'Jersey' ($1.5M). The next goal is $2 million (sic).”

On Monday, SS Rajamouli took to Twitter to heap praise on the film. He wrote, “Amidst the rugged landscape and raw characters, Srikanth Odella manages a tender heart touching love story.

He also added, "Cinematography is first class. Special mention to the background score. Hearty Congratulations to the #Dasara team on the wonderful success (sic).” Reacting to the tweet, Nani replied, "Sirrrr…. This is our #Dasara team’s Oscar @ssrajamouli."

Originally shot in Telugu, Dasara was released in Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada. The movie’s deeply rooted setting and how Srikanth manages to transport the viewer to a never seen milieu of a coal-laden hamlet really works in the film’s favour.

Nani will be eyeing two releases as a producer this year. He had confirmed that he will be bankrolling the sequels to the successful Telugu films Awe. He also has the third part of the HIT franchise in the pipeline.
