Reception[edit | edit source]
A critic from The New Indian Express wrote that "While the film may not achieve flawless victory, Komal Kumar’s presence makes it somewhat watchable. So prepare yourself for a visit to a spooky house, but only if you’re seeking laughter from cheesy jokes more than the real scares".[1] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "If you are bored of content-oriented films and looking for something different, which can also induce a good amount of laughter and scare, Namo Bhootatma-2 can be enjoyed in theatres".[2] A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "The slapstick comedy sometimes evokes laughter but poor taste brings it down. The film begins with a promising premise but fails for want of a gripping narrative".[3] A critic from The South First wrote that "Kannada actor Komal Kumar is the only saving grace in this sequel to his previous hit horror-comedy — Namo Bhoothathma".[4]
