Critical response

A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 3.5 out of 5 stars and says "Full marks to Ganesh who takes the story from the beginning to end with his marvellous performance, especially in the climax. Manjari impresses with her expressions. Rajendra Karanth and Malavika are gracious. Music by S Narayan and camera by JS Wali pass muster".[2] Srikanth Srinivasa from Rediff.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Narayan has composed a few good songs including the Manase number. Waali's cinematography goes well with the pace of the movie. Munjaane is definitely a treat to watch".[3] A critic from News18 India wrote "On the whole, it looks like Ganesh's performance is the only saving grace of 'Munjaane'. Otherwise it is another average fare".[4] A critic from DNA wrote "Circumstances compel them to marry but they decide to live separately. Will they join hands to lead a happy married life? See it on the silver screen. The film is not so bad if you can sit through the first half, which tends to get a bit dragging at parts".[5] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote  "The casting is good barring Malavika who is too young to be Ganesh’s mother and Manjari’s mother-in-law. Overall, the film is avoidable and you can only rue what it could have been".[6]
