"[14] A. Sharadhaa of Cinema Express gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Rustum is a good attempt by the first-time director and it will definitely impress Shivarajkumar’s fans.

R of The Indian Express gave 1 out of 5 stars and wrote "It seems like the filmmakers tried to pull out a narrative out of thin air after going to the sets.
