Arjun Janya was signed by the makers to score the film's background music and compose six tracks as part of its soundtrack.

Noted singers such as Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghoshal who got their big breaks in Kannada cinema through Mungaru Male recorded their voices to the sequel as well.

[31] A critic from Deccan Chronicle wrote that "The first half reminds of several Bollywood movies and it never takes off.

The film does not disappoint fans who watched the first part, for there is a Preetham, a Nandini and even a wedding house in hilly Karnataka, but all served in a different presentation with new spices.
