'' wrote that "This is a very pleasant film". A critic from ''webindia123'' wrote that "Hugely anticipated "7 O' Clock" has, however, proved to be a disappointment". ''Deccan Herald'' wrote "The first half is lively with funny episodes and blossoming of love while the second half takes twists and turns. Except the loss of memory of the hero and the coma in the climax , the film is neat. A considerable number of scenes have been shot in train, may be the first of its kind in Kannada. Songs and dialogues are good. Some songs and scenes have been shot in Goa".
