			A critic from ''[[The New Indian Express]]'' wrote that "While the film’s first half mostly captures love between the hero and the heroine and also between the bull and cow, the second half strikes an emotional chord. Yogaraj Bhat has brought the man-animal camaraderie that only endears ''Dana Kayonu'' to us".<ref>{{Cite web \|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2016/oct/08/unusual-plot-powerful-movie-but--too-many-conversations-1526008.html \|title=Dana Kayonu review: Unusual plot, powerful movie but too many conversations \|date=8 October 2016 \|access-date=31 December 2022 \|archive-date=31 December 2022 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221231194908/https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2016/oct/08/unusual-plot-powerful-movie-but--too-many-conversations-1526008.html \|url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web \|url=https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/cinema-reviews/Dana-Kayonu-A-good-story-despite-all-the-%E2%80%98mass%E2%80%99-elements/article15476168.ece \|title=Dana Kayonu: A good story despite all the 'mass' elements \|work=The Hindu \|date=8 October 2016 \|access-date=31 December 2022 \|archive-date=3 November 2022 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221103084813/https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/cinema-reviews/Dana-Kayonu-A-good-story-despite-all-the-%E2%80%98mass%E2%80%99-elements/article15476168.ece \|url-status=live }}</ref>
