Reception
editA critic from The Times of India wrote that "If you're game for a long watch, which gets only a tad interesting after the interval, then go for this film".[2] A critic from the Bangalore Mirror wrote that "Deliberate or otherwise, whatever story there is, it is and confusing. The story in the mind of the director which was then put on paper and what was shot finally seem to be three different things. The end product is a bad buy for the audience".[3] A critic from The New Indian Express wrote that "Without doubt, the movie does achieve to do what most filmmakers dread -- irritate the viewers".[4] A critic from Vijaya Karnataka rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "The director in an attempt to say everything in one movie, says nothing".[5] A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "Helmed by an aspiring debutant and played by an ambitious star, The Great Story of Soda Buddi belies facile description. A collage of art house and commercial elements, Soda Buddi turns a bit tedious".[6]
