Critical reception

Malini Mannath of Chennai Online noted that "Manibharathi crafts the screenplay in an interesting way. Most of the movie is a flashback and the scenes that launch the flashbacks are mounted in a way that makes us interested in how the flashback is going to play out."^[4] BizHat wrote, "The director has created the characters with utmost care which makes the film interesting. While the half moves interestingly, the second half lacks pace".^[5]
