Reception

Critical response

R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "Gauththam also marks the return of "Kokila" Mohan (Mike Mohan in Tamil films) and Kausalya to Kannada film industry, who have well in their respective roles. Notable performances from Sudharani, Anant Nag, Ramesh Bhat, Vinaya Prakash and Shivaram are another plus point of the film. Technical value of the film too is top class. Despite its dragging moments and predictable story line, Gauththam is a neat family entertainer". [2] A critic from Sify.com wrote  "Gurukiran is good in three tunes for the film and the other beauty of the film is the camera work by Sudhakar. Every frame of the film is gleeful. This is an above average film". [3]
