Reception

A critic from Dina Thanthi wrote that " Director Hari Utra has tried to make it a socially conscious film. The compelling screenplay tells that women are being harassed in some places even though they have improved in the society."^[3]

Maalai Malar critic stated that "A role where the protagonist Arun Michael can showcase his acting skills. He used it well and scored. Initially mild-mannered, he shows a different face when he tracks down sex offenders"^[4]
