Reception[edit | edit source]
R. G. Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com wrote that "Udees falls flat on many counts. Quite a few sequences remind you of Hindi films like Vaastav, Garv and the Kannada film Om".[5] A critic from Viggy.com wrote that "Story, direction and the screenplay are the real villains of the movie. The only performance worth remembering is of Mayur who has given a brilliant performance in action, dance and emotional scenes despite of shoddy script".[6] SN Deepak of Deccan Herald wrote "The director has mixed sentiments and action well. Add some hard-hitting dialogues and we have a watchable film. The screenplay seems to have been ‘inspired’ by Hindi films. Mayur (of Mani fame) has done an action role for the first time and does a decent job. Debutante actress Sonali Joshi, as the daydreaming heroine is good."[7]
