Reception
A critic from Sify wrote that "Kaanchi is like a cold glass of coffee that you find on your bedside as you get up on a cool morning. You can have it, but it won't give you any particular feeling. Decide on your own, if you want it or to go for some sparkling hot cup that will make you feel fresh!".[5] Paresh Palincha of Rediff.com opined that "Kaanchi, despite its star duo of Indrajith and Murali Gopy, and a script by Jeyamohan, falls far short of expectations".[6] Aswin J Kumar of The Times of India stated that "Kaanchi even throws up moments where a gifted story-teller like Jeyamohan seems doubtful of his own plot, something that hinders the plot".[7]
Box office
The film was a box office failure.[8]
