Reception
Critical response
A reviewer of Deccan Herald wrote "The rest of the cast is one long parade and actors like Muni are wasted in inconsequential roles. This Mahanadi is nothing but a monsoon-fed stream".[6] Hari from Kannada Prabha says "Rangayana Raghu has won the numbers game in spades. Loknath is the support of Mahanadi as an elder grandfather. But, Kashi, Shobharaj's talents are not properly utilized. The question should also be asked whether an actor like Satyajith was needed for a scene".[7] Charan C.S from The Times of India wrote "The performance of Rangayana Raghu, who plays the role of gambler Ningappa, falls flat. The other characters, played by Malathi Sardeshpande, Loknath, Shobharaj and Satyajit are also average".[8] Savitri Av from Vijaya Karnataka wrote "Rangayana Raghu brings color to some situations. Thara Thara Hosa Thara...Song is like life to a movie. The situations in Mumbai are closer to reality. It is reassuring not to over-glorify any situation".[9]
