===Critical reception===<br />
Prathibha Joy of ''[[OTTPlay]]'' rated the film 3.5/5 stars and wrote, "The film’s serious approach ensures that despite the kidnapping, there’s no melodrama involving the parents, and pretty much sticks to the plot. [...] ''Sold'', is a fairly decently made film, within its budgetary constraints."<ref>{{cite news |title=Sold movie review: Prerana Agarwal makes solid directorial debut with film on child trafficking |url=https://www.ottplay.com/review/sold-movie-review-prerana-agarwal-makes-solid-directorial-debut-with-film-on-child-trafficking/6c4b9c82c7549 |work=[[OTTPlay]] |date=30 April 2022 |language=en}}</ref> A. Sharadhaa of ''[[Cinema Express]]'' gave it 3/5 stars and wrote, "The film, based on real incidents, is disturbing, but allows the core message to come across".<ref>{{cite news |last1=A. |first1=Sharadhaa |title=Sold Movie Review: A moving yet grim reflection of reality |url=https://www.cinemaexpress.com/story/kannada/review/2022/Mar/05/sold-movie-reviewa-moving-yet-grim-reflection-of-reality-30085.html |work=Cinema Express |date=7 March 2022 |language=en}}</ref><br />
