Reception
[edit]Critical response
[edit]R G Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "Arjun's music is passable. Camerawork by Manu Apler is a major highlight of the film. The film could have been more engaging and interesting".[3] Bangalore Mirror wrote "Anisha Umar, in her first Kannada film, is passable and Meghana has just added another film to her list. B Suresha in the role of a don is neither scary or funny. The camerawork and the editing where the cuts are invisible are the plus points of the film. Otherwise, the director should take the blame. Period".[4] Deccan Herald wrote "“Tuglak” lives up to its title. An effort that holds itself back just short of brilliance, “Tuglak” simplifies the dilemma many face, but leaves the audience dissatisfied. Just as the sultan of yore, perhaps?"[5]
