Reception
Critical response
The Times of India scored the film at 3.5 out of 5 stars and says ". L N Sastry has composed some good numbers. Keerthi Vishnuvardhan needs special mention for her excellent costumes. Palaniraj and Pambal Ravi have choreographed some excellent fights."[4] R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "L N Shashtri's composition of the hip hop song Jagwaare Jaagwaare Jaga and Hait Lagori are good. His background music too is plus point. As always, director Baboo ensures very good technical work. All in all Bellary Naga is a breezy and enjoyable entertainer.[5]The New Indian Express wrote "Bellary Naga" is a breezy, likeable entertainer. Despite its loudness, the film will be a treat for the class audience because of Vishnu's rocking performance."[6]
