Ellame En Pondattithaan

A critic from Deccan Herald wrote "there is not any story to speak of, and everything in this film is silly" and "it's impossible to sit through a film like this without wondering who such films are made for."^[5] Ji of Kalki wrote the story which starts off uneventfully continues without a hitch then it falls down while praising the performances of Manivannan and Radhika and added at one point of time the story refuses to move away beyond the circle and concluded asking is there any invocation of makers that they will make the fans go home with extreme irritation by moving the scenes so ridiculously.^[6] D. S. Ramanujam wrote for The Hindu, "Director V. Sekhar, an expert at family themes has written the story, screenplay and dialogue. He works the plot to an interesting point at the interval". Ramanujam anticipated "a fight by the wife" post-interval, but was dismayed to find only tropes from earlier Tamil films such as "slum eviction, land patta demand, torching of huts, malpractices at fair price shops, pressures on the police to free party workers who have breached the law, engaging goondas to break a fast by women etc".^[7]
