Together they dish out the silliest, nonsensical and stale comic scenes to the viewers".[6] R. G. Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com wrote "Jaggesh and Narayan make a good combination and have tried every trick in the book to make people laugh" and added that "Chickpete Sachagalu may not be the best comedy film but it's time pass fare".[7]
