Critical response Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana from Rediff.com scored the film at 2.5 out of 5 stars and says "This being a children's film, the violent sequence could have been avoided. Certain provocative scenes involving the second lead heroine could also have been easily given a skip. Appu Pappu speaks of the importance of family values and ties on one hand, and animal welfare and protection on the other. A good outing for the kids". B. S. Srivani from Deccan Herald wrote "However, “Appu Pappu” is meant mainly for the kids, and their doting parents. When each trick, twist and turn featuring the human-animal duo gets seetis and loud applause, it is time to suspend logic and enjoy the show. “Appu Pappu” entertains as only it can". A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Rekha excels with her graceful performance. Master Snehith promises to be a "little star" of the future. Komal is simply superb. Rangayana Raghu keeps you in good humour. Raju Thalikote, Abbas and Jennifer Kotwal have done justice to their roles. It is finally the orangutan that steals the show with a good performance. "Mungaru Male" Krishna is at his best in cinematography. Hamsalekha has given some excellent musical numbers". == Box office ==
