Reception[edit]
Critical response[edit]
A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "Reema Vora is okay. Except for Srinivasamurthy, other artistes fail to impress. Music by Vinaya Chandra and cinematography by Ashok V Raman are average".[1] Shruti I L from DNA wrote "Making one laugh comes naturally to Jaggesh and Naani, if only director Mohan had a more interesting, engaging and well executed script to do justice to the actors. Watch the film if you are a hard core Jaggesh fan who never gives any of his films a miss!".[2] Srikanth Srinivasa from Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "Reema Vohra has done justice to her role and so has Spoorthi as Manjunatha's first girlfriend. Chandrashekar of Yeddakallu Guddadamele makes a brief appearance as the heroine's father. Though there are too many characters, which leaves one confused, Manjunatha BA LLB is a watchable film".[3] A Sharadhaa from The New Indian Express wrote "Ashok Raman has disappointed with his camera work and there is nothing much to talk about Vinay Chandra’s music. The Verdict: When the lawyer is incapable, the judgement is never in his favour".[4] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote "Jaggesh saves bits of the film with his inimitable punchlines that are his trademark. A couple of songs are pleasing. But the background score, for the most part, is a torture. It manages to snuff out the dialogues even. The director shows lack of imagination and towards the end, the film seems to have been hurriedly wrapped up".[5]
