Reception

Malini Mannath of The Indian Express wrote it "turns out to be fairly engaging film".[6] K. Vijiyin of New Straits Times wrote, "It is amazing Chandrasegaran went into production without a proper story. Rajarajan's cinematography is the saving grace in this movie which seems to have nothing new to say".[7] Ananda Vikatan gave the film a score of 30 out of 100.[8]
