Critical reception
Nowrunning wrote "Police Story Part II' looks every inch like the original in its narration, content, technical details and even the way the characters speak their dialogues. It is utterly crude with no space for sensibility and sensitivity." Sify wrote "This is a power packed action extravaganza. A sequel to 'Police Story' released 10 years ago this film is updated in technology and is stylishly made. Thriller Manju has done a mind blowing job with eight action scenes and non stop punching dialogues from dialogue king Saikumar in the role of Agni is the redeeming feature of this film. This is a feast for the action lovers and those who love dialogue oriented films."
