Reception

R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Prajwal Devaraj makes a serious effort to portray his character well. Certainly this film is the best in his career so far. Newbie actress Ruthwa looks good on screen and has potential. Veteran artists Chandrashekhar and Gurudatt have acted well. Watch Jeeva for Prajwal's neat performance and Guru Kiran's music". [3] A critic from The New Indian Express wrote "Guru Kiran has provided good music. Rangayana Raghu has provided good support but Chandrasekhar fails to impress. It is a worthy watch for those who love action-oriented films". [4] BSS from Deccan Herald wrote "But several stupid mistakes show that the director has tried to play safe and appease one and all. Saisuresh’s scissors must be credited for saving the film from turning into another insipid and mediocre fare. ‘Jeeva’ lacks life, but Ruthwa and Prajwal are not bad at all". [5] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote  "Rutva lacks the charm of a leading lady and Chandrashekar exaggerates. Gurukiran brings melody to some songs but is not above the ordinary, just like the film. Jeeva lacks the magic of cinema and is just another piece of exposed film". [6]
