Reception

A critic from The New Indian Express wrote that "While the film may not achieve flawless victory, Komal Kumar’s presence makes it somewhat watchable. So prepare yourself for a visit to a spooky house, but only if you’re seeking laughter from cheesy jokes more than the real scares".[1] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "If you are bored of content-oriented films and looking for something different, which can also induce a good amount of laughter and scare, Namo Bhootatma-2 can be enjoyed in theatres".[2] A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "The slapstick comedy sometimes evokes laughter but poor taste brings it down. The film begins with a promising premise but fails for want of a gripping narrative".[3] A critic from The South First wrote that "Kannada actor Komal Kumar is the only saving grace in this sequel to his previous hit horror-comedy — Namo Bhoothathma".[4]

A Sharadhaa, writing for New Indian Express, gave a rating of 2 out of 5 stars in her review of 'Namo Bhoothathma 2.' The film, directed by Murali, attempts to blend horror and comedy within the setting of an eerie haunted house. While the movie fulfills the requirement of an unsettling backdrop, it falls short in execution, relying on recycled and distasteful humor that may leave viewers wanting more innovative jokes. Komal Kumar's comedic timing shines, adding some charm to an otherwise lackluster film. Despite its shortcomings, the movie combines humor and supernatural intrigue, with Kumar's presence making it somewhat watchable for those seeking laughter from cheesy jokes more than genuine scares.
