Reception
India Info wrote "The hard effort of the director is seen in all the departments and he gets in the required support to make this a wholesome entertainer. In the midst of remake films & low quality Kannada films, this one by Baraguru is a boon and lifts the sagging image of Kannada films".[1] Online Bangalore wrote "The producers of the film had spared no efforts to make a good and commercially viable film. But all these efforts have gone in vain, and what comes out is an ordinary fair. The only saving grace is the rural based ethnic dialogues and lyrics of Baraguru Ramachandrappa which stands apart from the run of the mill stuff. But there is another itch here. Sometimes there is no coherence between the character and the dialogues that he utters on the screen.".[2]
