Release and reception

The film competed with forty-one other films for the Karnataka State Film Awards, but it was not nominated. A critic from ''Viggy'' wrote that "In a nutshell, is a watchable film if you opt for an average comedy entertainer". A critic from ''Chitraloka'' said that "For every five minutes in this nearly 2 hours 40 minutes film the audience would laugh. They feel a respite as scores of Kannada films doled out below average films in the last three months leaving a danger. However Babu’s ‘KK3’ finally gives wonderful output".

Box office

The film's budget was negatively affected by the change of timings in Kannada and Hindi film theatres.
