This film marks the return of Raghavendra Rajkumar to acting after five years.[3] A song was shot at M G Road, Bangalore.[4]
Music by Rajesh Ramanath. Three songs were reused from Padosan and three additional songs were composed.[5]
SND of Deccan Herald wrote that "The director has followed the original story idea. His efforts to make this film lively as far as possible is clearly visible particularly in the first half which is mainly comedy".[6] R. G. Vijayasarathy of IANS wrote that "In the end, Pakkadmane Hudugi turns out to be yet another Kannada film that fails to make any impact".[5] A critic from Sify wrote that "Raghavendra Rajkumar is cool as Balu while Ananthnag and Mohan as Indu’s music teacher steal the show. Ranjitha is not up to the mark as heroine".[7]
