Reception
Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu revealed "the film drags on for 45 minutes — absolutely exasperating".[3] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote "The Director does make some attempts to give some little touches that would make his narration interesting. But there are too many lagging moments in the film".[6] Visual Dasan of Kalki wrote even though the screenplay destroys our belief that the title is like a poem and the subject is like that, the scenes are saving us.[7]
