Critical reception
Jayamanmadhan (a duo) of Kalki praised the acting of actors and they concluded the review by advising Sridhar that he can think and make films after watching films releasing in present times.[6] Balumani of Anna praised acting, music but felt the concept of society will isolate film actors sounds unacceptable yet Sridhar gave a film without any lag which can be watched by everyone.[7]
