Reception

Sunayana Suresh from The Times of India wrote "But, given how subtlety has slowly crept into the narratives, even among the commercial dramas, one wonders whether the filmmaker could have moved ahead in time while writing the screenplay for the original". [5] A reviewer of Udayavani said , Apart from a few things like this, there are very few negatives in the movie 'huccha 2'. Other positives are performances by Krishna, Malavika, Saikumar and Avinash, songs and background music by Anoop Seelin, cinematography by Ravikumar, M.S. Ramesh's dialogues are eye-catching. [6] Ganesh Ranebennur from Samyukta Karnataka wrote "It has nothing to do with him. Since this is a movie of a different vein, if you look at some aspects aside, you will like 'Huccha'. Anoop Seelin's songs and background music are one of the high points of the film. MS Ramesh dialogues complement the film". [7]
