Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana from Rediff.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "Dhool has nothing new to offer in terms of story. In fact it is inspired by Tamil super hit film Thiruvilleyadal Aarambam. The film makes an enjoyable one time watch because of its comedy and its punches. Yogi won't disappoint his fans". [2] A critic from The New Indian Express wrote "The movie Dhool is an action oriented flick". [3] Sunayana Suresh from DNA wrote "V Harikrishna has scored some good numbers, especially 'Amma Loosa'. The Dr Rajkumar hit Nanna Neenu Gellalaare, which is recreated featuring Yogesh and Prakash Raj, is quite good too. This makes for a perfect weekend watch". [4] B S Srivani from Deccan Herald wrote "Aindrita is pleasing on the eye. Achyuth, Sudha Belawadi and others add their mite to make the film relatable. Dharani’s screenplay scores that way. Harikrishna’s music has some unusual ‘sounds’ but except for the “Loosa” song the rest don’t make the cut". [5]
