Release and reception
The film competed with forty-one other films for the Karnataka State Film Awards, but it was not nominated.
A critic from Viggy wrote that "In a nutshell, is a watchable film if you opt for an average comedy entertainer". A critic from Chitraloka said that "For every five minutes in this nearly 2 hours 40 minutes film the audience would laugh. They feel a respite as scores of Kannada films doled out below average films in the last three months leaving a danger. However Babu’s ‘KK3’ finally gives wonderful output". India Info wrote "Its time D. Rajendra Singh Babu uses his talent for some script which is really worthwhile rather that these Kathe's, Kothi's and Kudure's".
Box office
The film's budget was negatively affected by the change of timings in Kannada and Hindi film theatres.
