Production

The film was promoted as a sequel to Mantra (2007) although it is not.[2][3] This film was produced by the same producers as Mantra.[4]

Reception

A critic from Idlebrain.com wrote that "Though there are a few chilling moments in the movie, logic-less climax and slack second half work against the movie".[5] A critic from Filmibeat wrote that "director Machakanti Ramakrishna has chosen to bring out the film in a narrative way by recreating the situations visually. This kind of narration helped in running the story smoothly".[6] A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote that "On the whole, Diary will suit you if you're utterly starved of jitters".[7]
