== Release and reception ==
A critic from ''[[Chitraloka.com]]'' gave a favourable review and opined that "Director Singeetham Srinivasarao has shown his diligence and proves that comedy is his hot favorite" and stated that "Jaggesh's effort and his dialogue delivery is a treat to watch".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Makeup Movie Review |url=https://www.chitraloka.com/movie-reviews/2810-makeup-review.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211220191130/https://www.chitraloka.com/movie-reviews/2810-makeup-review.html |archive-date=20 December 2021 |access-date=20 December 2021 |website=[[Chitraloka.com]]}}</ref> A critic from ''[[Viggy]]'' opined that "Jaggesh as Doddamma has done an excellent job" and called the film "A sheer pleasure for Jaggesh fans".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Makeup film review |url=http://www.viggy.com/english/review_makeup.asp |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211220192633/http://www.viggy.com/english/review_makeup.asp |archive-date=20 December 2021 |access-date=20 December 2021 |website=Viggy}}</ref> Srikanth of ''[[Deccan Herald]]'' noted that the film was inspired from characters in ''[[Mrs. Doubtfire]]'' (1993) and ''[[Avvai Shanmugi]]'' (1996), "but with a Jaggesh punch." However, he felt that "Jaggesh has nothing new to offer to his fans except for his new makeup and 'get-up'. However, there are more laughs in the film that he is known to give the audience and his fans. Laila Patel has nothing much to do. Shakti Kapoor disappoints and so is Tennis Krishna".<ref name="dh1"/>

== Box office ==
Despite the positive reviews and a good run at the box office, the film was a box office failure and lost seventy five lakhs due to the film's high budget.<ref name="Kannada" /><ref name="Viggy" /> Jaggesh had to sell his house to compensate for the loss.<ref>{{Cite web |date=31 May 2020 |title=Actor Jaggesh had sold his house for 'Make Up'! |url=https://newskarnataka.com/south-cinema/sandalwood/actor-jaggesh-had-sold-his-house-for-make-up/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211220191114/https://newskarnataka.com/south-cinema/sandalwood/actor-jaggesh-had-sold-his-house-for-make-up/ |archive-date=20 December 2021 |access-date=20 December 2021 |website=Newskarnataka.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=31 May 2020 |title='ಮೇಕಪ್‌' ಮಾಡಿ ₹35 ಕೋಟಿ ಮೌಲ್ಯದ ಆಸ್ತಿ ಕಳೆದುಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದ ಜಗ್ಗೇಶ್‌! |url=https://www.prajavani.net/entertainment/cinema/jaggesh-lost-assets-worth-rs-35-crore-to-produce-makeup-movie-732261.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211220203105/https://www.prajavani.net/entertainment/cinema/jaggesh-lost-assets-worth-rs-35-crore-to-produce-makeup-movie-732261.html |archive-date=20 December 2021 |access-date=20 December 2021 |website=Prajavani |language=kn}}</ref> Jaggesh cites the reason for the film's failure is that the film released at the "wrong time".<ref name="Hindu" /> Despite the film's failure, Jaggesh garnered appreciation for his role.<ref>{{Cite news |date=25 November 2009 |title=Brotherhood in Gandhinagar |work=[[The New Indian Express]] |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2009/nov/25/brotherhood-in-gandhinagar-107173.html |url-status=live |access-date=20 December 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211220191114/https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2009/nov/25/brotherhood-in-gandhinagar-107173.html |archive-date=20 December 2021}}</ref>
