Release and reception

edit

The film was scheduled to release on 28 March 2014 on the same day as Ulidavaru Kandanthe but was delayed.[8][9] A critic from Sify wrote that "Over all, Kwatle Satisha is a one-time watch with family as well as friends, but definitely a laughter riot!".[10] A critic from Deccan Chronicle wrote that "Ninasum Satisha does a neat job and Sonia Gowda plays a sweet cameo as lead characters with Chickkanna filling the humour part".[11] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote that "Kwatle Satisha makes for an engaging watch and should easily take care of a summer afternoon."[12]
