Malini Mannath ofThe Indian Express wrote it "turns out to be fairly engaging film".[8] K. Vijiyan ofNew Straits Times wrote, "It is amazing Chandrasegaran went into production without a proper story. Rajarajan's cinematography is the saving grace in this movie which seems to have nothing new to say".[9] Thulasi ofKalki panned the plot and violence but praised the cinematography and music.[10]Ananda Vikatan gave the film a score of 30 out of 100.[11]
