Critical reception
The Times of India rated the movie 1.5/5 and stated "Hyper lacks the ingredients required to be a breezy love story. The story line is not strong enough to keep one glued to the screen. Director Ganesh Vinayak's attempt to make a cute love story in the backdrop of serial killings turns out to be a disaster. Arjun Aarya looks good in patches. Sheila makes a comeback to Sandalwood after a long hiatus — she makes an impression as a college-going girl. Actors Rangayana Raghu and Achyuth Kumar have done their best. The songs are average. Watch this film only if you fancy predictable college love sagas."[3]
