Reception

Cinema Express rated the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "However, the director, who has tackled a realistic subject, does get carried away with the commercial elements. With neat performances, the film could have made for a crisp thriller if the repetitive scenes were cut short."^[4]

Harish Basavarajaiah for The Times of India wrote "While the filmmaker has tried to create a unique story, there are some questions that remain unanswered even at the end of the film. This is where the film lags a little."^[5]

A Sharadhaa from The New Indian Express rated the film 3 stars of 5 stars and wrote "Director Shiva Ganesh, who proved his directorial capabilities with the remake of Jigarthanda in Kannada, has done a good job with Dear Sathya. However, the director, who has tackled a realistic subject, does get carried away with the commercial elements."^[6]

OTTPlay reviews and wrote " Dear Sathya is based on a story that Santhosh wrote inspired by a real-life incident."^[7]
