Reception
Critical response
A Shardhha of The New Indian Express wrote ".This film is strictly for those, who wanted to see Prajwal Devaraj in a mass hero avatar, and for those who are still open to watching and enjoying commercial entertainers".[3] Vinay Lokesh from The Times Of India gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Director Khadar Kumar fails to strike a gold in his first attempt by taking up a subject which has been tried out umpteen times especially in Sandalwood".[4] Swaroop Kodur of OTT Play says "It is tough to recommend a film that has very little to boast about but should you feel compelled to pay a customary visit to a cinema hall, then you may proceed towards this with caution".[5] A Reviewer of Udayavani wrote "Those who want an action packed family drama will like 'Veeram'".[6] Y Maheswara Reddy of Bangalore Mirror says "Had the director avoided one or two action scenes, Veeram would have been a good one for all kinds of audiences".[7]
