Jeevi of Idlebrain.com felt that the lead characters (Rahul being colourblind, Sindhu being mute, and Sonal being an actress) are similar to the characters of the 1986 film Sirivennela (Sarvadaman D. Banerjee is blind, Suhasini is mute, and Moon Moon Sen is glamorous).[15]
Jeevi gave the film a rating of 2.25 out of 5 and said that "Making a film like Rainbow is like entering a danger zone. Stories like these need strong narration and grip on emotions in order to work".[15] Radhika Rajamani of Rediff.com gave the film a rating of two out of five stars.[7] Y. Sunitha Chowdhury of The Hindu opined that "One doesn't understand why the director had to show the hero as being colour blind just to elevate his character and the heroine undergoing a change of heart just because she realises Shyam is suffering from an ailment looks unrealistic".[6]
