Reception
Critical response
A critic fromThe Times of India scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and says "It is Shivrajkumar's show all through. Sharath Lohithashwa is brilliant. Manju Bhargavi is graceful. Music by Jessie Gift and camerawork by Ravi are good". R G Vijayasarathy of 'Rediff.com' scored the film at 1 out of 5 stars and wrote "As usual Shivaraj Kumar is good in the fight sequences and dances. Despite his age, he shows extreme agility on screen. Mumbai import Nicolette Bird has an insignificant role that is limited to a few songs and some scenes. You pity actors of great calibre like Sharath Lohithaswa, Pavithra Lokesh andAadi Lokesh whoseroles are so badly written.Jassie Gift who did well in his debut Kannada filmHudugaata,is completely off colour here". A critic fromThe New Indian Express wrote "Surprisingly, Malayalam music director Jessie Gift, who gave some wonderful tunes in his first Kannada film "Hudugaata", fails to deliver good compositions here. "Hatrick Hodi Maga" is an ordinary fare with a slow pace of narration". A critic fromMid-Day wrote "Shivarjkumar and Manju Bharagavi have given a good performance. The music and songs in the movie also needs a special mention. Nicolette Bird has no proper platform to show her talent and Sadhu Kokila's rubbish comedy irritates the audience". A critic fromBangalore Mirror wrote "Sadhu Kokila's comedy is a humorous take on 'Jogi, and it is plain silly. Most of the characters are dull and the film never rises above the ordinary. Hodimaga is just another addition to the 'long' list of such films for Shiva Rajkumar".
