Vedham

Sify wrote, "Vedham is sleep inducing. Arjun should stick to patriotism, guns and scantly clad girls dancing in ribaldry. But here he wants to experiment with the idea – "To be in love for ever" but ends up making an insufferable film that leaves you with a migraine'.^[4] Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "Generally it is patriotism that is the underlying theme of Arjun's films. But in Vedham he deviates much, to talk about the sanctity of the institution of marriage and glorify the familial unit. The message is loud and clear – so clear that it turns didactic".^[5]

Visual Dasan of Kalki praised the fights of Arjun, performances of actors, uncomplicated screenplay by narrating small flashbacks, Saisuresh's editing and realistic dialogues but felt Vidyasagar's hard work was wasted due to songs being forced and concluded saying barring a few sudden cinematic twists, this celluloid class Room is a must-have for today.^[6] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote, "The film moves at an interesting pace, promisingly enough, during the first part. But then Arjun, who has taken on the burden of writing, directing, producing, and playing the central role – a burden which seems to sit a bit too heavily on him – loses track of his main theme and drifts into the song-dance-fight routine".^[7]
