The Times of India stated that "While the first half is exhilarating, the second half is an excellent mixture of sentiments, romance and comedy".[7] Bangalore Mirror said that "What works for the film is the strict adherence to a well worked out storyline and the comedy situations that are worked into it".[8] Sify said that "For those who have already watched the original is strictly off limits unless you are die-hard fan of Ganesh".[9] Ullasa Utsaha was a box office failure.[10] Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana of Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "All in all, Ullasaha Uthsaha is a time pass, feel good romantic comedy. It is a onetime watch for Ganesh's diehard fans and for those of you who haven't seen the original".[11]
