    Release and reception

    [edit]

    Ashoka was released on 17 March 2006 after being delayed.[4] K.N. Venkatasubba Rao of The Hindu opined that "Borrowing its plot straight from published sensational news stories, in a cut and paste format, Ashoka attempts to trace the nexus between the police and underworld in a despicable but undeniable fashion".[5] R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com said that "Overall, Ashoka is good if you want to see another side of Shivaraj Kumar".[6] The film was commercially unsuccessful.[7][8]
