Reception
Srikanth Srinivasa of Deccan Herald wrote that "This film would definitely put critics in a spot, and leave them wondering whether to laugh or cry over the quality of such Kannada films churned out by Gandhinagar. After the success of Hallo Yama, our film-makers seem to have reached Yamaloka, going by the quality of films they are churning out".[6]
