Critical reception

edit

Srikanth Srinivasa from Rediff.com scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "Mathew who has also scored the music has done well. There's a flashmob sequence in a mall that has been picturised well while taking the shoppers by surprise. Nam Anna Don is a light-hearted movie. It will bring a smile on your face".[4] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote  "Nam Anna Don is better than most of the recent films of Ramesh. But it is not as good as Rama Shama Bhama that it is being compared to. It will not disappoint, but at the same time it is not a compulsive film".[5] A critic from DNA wrote "One of the best things about the film is the complete absence of violence and being able to send a message through humour; yes, you can definitely take your family".[6] A critic from News18 India wrote "Krishna Kumar's camera work is good, but he could have shot night sequences with more lights. Editor Soundar's work is crisp. 'Nammanna Don' is a fun-cum-message-oriented film which should not be missed".[7]
