== Reception == === Critical response ===

A critic from ''The Times of India'' scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "Reema Vora is okay. Except for Srinivasamurthy, other artistes fail to impress. Music by Vinaya Chandra and cinematography by Ashok V Raman are average".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/kannada/movie-reviews/manjunatha-ba-llb/movie-review/16398956.cms|title=MANJUNATHA BA LLB MOVIE REVIEW|work=The Times of India|date=16 May 2016}}</ref> Shruti I L from DNA wrote "Making one laugh comes naturally to Jaggesh and Naani, if only director Mohan had a more interesting, engaging and well executed script to do justice to the actors. Watch the film if you are a hard core Jaggesh fan who never gives any of his films a miss!".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dnaindia.com/entertainment/review-review-manjunatha-ba-llb-kannada-1741242/amp|title=Review: 'Manjunatha BA LLB' (Kannada)|work=DNA|date=15 September 2012}}</ref> Srikanth Srinivasa from Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "Reema Vohra has done justice to her role and so has Spoorthi as Manjunatha's first girlfriend. Chandrashekar of Yeddakallu Guddadamele makes a brief appearance as the heroine's father. Though there are too many characters, which leaves one confused, Manjunatha BA LLB is a watchable film".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rediff.com/movies/report/south-review-manjunatha-ba-llb/20120914.htm|title=Review: Manjunatha BA LLB is watchable|work=Rediff.com|date=14 September 2014}}</ref> A Sharadhaa from The New Indian Express wrote "Ashok Raman has disappointed with his camera work and there is nothing much to talk about Vinay Chandra’s music. The Verdict: When the lawyer is incapable, the judgement is never in his favour".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2012/Sep/18/manjunatha-ba-llb-kannada-407424.html|title=Manjunatha BA LLB (Kannada)|work=The New Indian Express|date=18 September 2012}}</ref> A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote "Jaggesh saves bits of the film with his inimitable punchlines that are his trademark. A couple of songs are pleasing. But the background score, for the most part, is a torture. It manages to snuff out the dialogues even. The director shows lack of imagination and towards the end, the film seems to have been hurriedly wrapped up".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/reviews/manjunatha-ba-llb-the-bar-is-lowered/articleshow/21311954.cms|title=Manjunatha BA, LLB: The bar is lowered!|work=Bangalore Mirror|date=14 September 2012}}</ref>
