Reception
Critical response
R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "Mano Murthy has composed music for an action film for the first time. His songs have variety, but they are not exceptional. The background score by Sadhu Kokila is good. Maadesha is an enjoyable film for Shivraj Kumar fans".[4] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote "But the rest of the film is a glorified killing field. In one particular scene the state home minister writes a cheque for Rs 50 lakh to an underworld don to take on a rival. This shows the director’s lack of knowledge beyond guns and machetes".[5] A critic from Sify.com wrote "G.S.V.Seetharam the silent and sensible cameraman of Kannada cinema gives a splendid work. The top angles shots in Australia for the song is brilliant. Action lovers and die hard Shivrajkumar will love it".[6]
