Several fans took to the comment section, praising the photos and Sai Pallavi's attire. One comment read, "Beauty looks beautiful without makeup." Another comment read, "Beautifully captured, with the right focus and camera placement."

Following that, many Sai Pallavi fans quickly defended the actress stating that it was her choice to wear whatever attire she wants. A netizen wrote, "To those few people. Fyi a swim suit is used for swimming !! People can do what they want or Do whatever they are comfortable with. It's their choice. U have no right to intrude." Another user pointed out, "She is brilliant enough to know what she wants to wear as per the situation and occasion."

A comment also read, "To those few comments people wear a swim suit while swimming !! People can wear what they are comfortable with. Its their choice. Stop intruding in other peoples lives. N saipallavi ma'am told about her preferences(modest not traditional, dont over exxagerate) in movies not personal life. Everyone can do what they feel is right. U have no right to ask. Its their choice. Even in personal life she is simple and modest only .N We respect her for the person she is !!"
