Reception

Critical response

M. V. Vivek of ''Deccan Herald'' gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote "''Triple Riding'' is a film that makes you go numb with its sheer lack of freshness". Muralidhara Khajane of ''The Hindu'' wrote "''Triple Riding'' has nothing new to offer. There is an overdose of comedy and the story is just another take on love and heartbreak. It is unfortunate that in the name of appeasing fans, filmmakers write scripts like these that offer stars nothing new to experiment with." Prathibha Joy of ''OTT Play'' gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote "This is a ride that you may want to miss. ''Triple Riding'' is an offence, you see!"

Y. Maheswara Reddy of ''Bangalore Mirror'' gave 3.5/5 stars and wrote "Triple Riding would have been better had the director reduced the duration of the movie by at least 15 minutes." Harish Basavarajaiah of ''The Times of India'' gave 3/5 stars and wrote "For those who love comedy films, this would be a perfect weekend treat". A. Sharadhaa of ''The New Indian Express'' gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Overall, ''Tribble Riding'' is a tasteful comedy entertainer and an equally good romance. Interestingly this fun film has an underline message too".
