scored the film at 1.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Sangeetha, as the mother of Shyam, has done well and so has Jaijagadish as the father. Giridhar Divan has scored good melodious music. Suresh Byrasandra's camerawork is adequate. Ondu Kshanadalli is a somewhat slow and tedious film with some very insipid narration".
