Reception[]
The Hindu wrote "Multiple starrers are almost unknown to Kannada cinema and the credit for introducing a galaxy of mega stars goes to Rockline Productions whose "Yaare Neenu Cheluve" has formidable names such as Vishnuvardhan, Ravichandran, Ramesh. Jaggesh and Prakash Rai, making it perhaps the first such star-studded venture. But the film's merit-worthiness stops here, the acting prowess of its stars notwithstanding. For, it is a straight remake of the Tamil hit "Kaadal Kottai" So, it comes a cipher where creativity and originality are concerned although Rajendra Babu can be credited as the captain for a film which is technically and musically superior."[4] In contrast, Deccan Herald wrote "The story just falls flat on its face and fails to live up to even half the expectations of its Tamil original."[5]
