==Reception==
===Critical response===
Pratibha Joy from [OTT Play](/source/HT_Media) 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".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.ottplay.com/review/undenaama-review-komal-and-harish-raj-lead-adult-comedy-that-isnt-fun/235865c4b674 |title=Undenaama review: Komal and Harish Raj lead adult comedy that isn't fun |date=3 June 2023|work=[OTT Play](/source/HT_Media)|language=en|access-date=18 November 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230805110941/https://www.ottplay.com/review/undenaama-review-komal-and-harish-raj-lead-adult-comedy-that-isnt-fun/235865c4b674 |archive-date=5 August 2023}}</ref> A reviewer of [Udayavani](/source/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".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://m.udayavani.com/article/undenama-kannada-movie-review/1460186 |title=ಯಾಮಾರಿದ್ರೆ ವೆಂಕಟೇಶನಿಗೂ ಬೀಳುತ್ತೆ ಉಂಡೆನಾಮ! |date=15 April 2023|work=[Udayavani](/source/Udayavani)|language=kannada|access-date=18 November 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231115195324/https://m.udayavani.com/article/undenama-kannada-movie-review/1460186 |archive-date=15 November 2023}}</ref> Vinay Lokesh from [The Times of India](/source/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".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/kannada/movie-reviews/undenama/movie-review/99492085.cms?from=mdr |title=Undenama Movie Review: Komal Carries This Comic Capper Solely On His Shoulders |date=14 April 2023|work=[The Times of India](/source/The_Times_of_India)|language=en|access-date=18 November 2023|url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231118021618/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/kannada/movie-reviews/undenama/movie-review/99492085.cms?from=mdr&from=mdr |archive-date=18 November 2023}}</ref>
