Reception

Critical response

Pratibha Joy from OTT Play wrote "Undenaama would have perhaps worked if it had been made a couple of decades ago. The subject is jaded, as are the actors, making it quite lacklustre. The film dropped on Sun NXT on June 2. Watch it only if you can’t find anything better or actually like this kind of cinema".^[5] A reviewer of Udayavani says "More attention could have been given to the songs and background music of the movie. Apart from that, the cinematography and editing of the movie make "Undenama" look good".^[6] Vinay Lokesh from The Times of India wrote "Undenamma is a typical comedy film with a bit of crime elements that lives up to the billing. Dhanya Balakrishna does her best with limited opportunities. Undenamma is a good one time watch".^[7]
