A critic from Sify wrote that "With crass item number, songs which come as speed breakers, subplots, flashback within flashbacks, jarring background score, and lot of violence, this mass film fails to impress".[7] A critic from The New Indian Express wrote that " It’s surprising that a Kannada flick which created no great ripples at the box office, and had a routine scenario so familiar to Tamil audiences, should be chosen to be remade in Tamil".[8] A reviewer from The Times of India gave the film a rating of one out of five stars and noted that "The film manages the astonishing feat of falling even below expectations".[9]
A critic from The Times of India gave the film a rating of one out of five stars and stated that "There are some movies which are so bad you can at least crack up about how bad they are. Nanda Nandita isn’t one of them".[10] A critic wrote that "In essence; Nanda Nanditha lacked basic elements that make any film watchable".[11]
