Manohar Shetty’s poems connect with a world of perceptions and sudden realizations and do not show many states as it would imply. His poems have a stint of touch and texture which is outstanding for any young poet. According to A.K. Mehrotra, on the fourth book Personal Effects (2010), he said that he would read the poems slowly and imagine himself in the situation. He further added that the style of the anthologies that Manohar wrote remained same over the decades and got even more furnished than before.

He exclaimed that it was a pleasure having Manohar as an Indian poet. Shetty is present in Sudip Sen’s essay named “New Indian Poetry: The 1990s Perspective”. He saw Manohar’s poems as being controlled, and he said that Manohar has the capability to get in full control of the characters that he had used in his anthologies. K.Narayana of The University Of Hyderabad exclaimed that he was overwhelmed by Shetty’s capability to write magnificently about the little world that everyone knew. He could write his poems very passionately, and that is a gift that every poet would aspire to have.
