Reception[edit | edit source]

Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India rated the film three out of five stars and wrote, "Watch this film if you love your dose of masala-laden commercial cinema, for it promises just that - entertainment with no strings attached".[3] Shyam Prasad S of the Bangalore Mirror wrote, "Tyson may not stand apart as a landmark film in Sandalwood but it will in Vinod’s career. The film is sure to establish him as a lead actor to look out for".[4] Shashiprasad SM of the Deccan Chronicle wrote, "Vinod who returns with good package of decent dance moves, much improved voice base, confident approach, and most of all with the right punches (action) makes it a good one time watch".[5] A critic from Prajavani wrote the film asserts that the police believe that protecting the people is more important than their own family.[6]

Box office[edit | edit source]

The film ran for 25 days. After the success of this film, Vinod Prabhakar added an extra 'n' to his name.[7]
