Reception

A critic from The Times of India opined that "The tale of love and revenge gives you a haunting feel. Most of the actor don't have much to do and seem wasted in blink-and-miss roles".^[12] Padmakumar K. of Manorama Online said that "the musical score, both background and the songs, by Ouseppachan is a pleasant surprise. The lush locales, perfect sound design and an off-beat treatment make Appavum Veenjum a blissful experience".^[13]
