Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana from Rediff gave 2/5 stars and wrote "Shashank had promised a stylish action flick and with Vijay at the helm, that was what was expected, but the film comes as a disappointment". [4] Bangalore Mirror wrote "Without Arjun Janya's music, Harsha’s cute concepts for the songs and Shekar Chandra's cinematography which reaches credible heights in scenes like the temple car festival, Jarasandha would have been relegated to a much poorer film". [5] The New Indian Express wrote "Jarasandha is worth watching if you are fond of action-oriented films". [6]
