Reception

A reviewer from The Hindu noted "the script is good in the first half but sags in the second", adding "the director has not done much to sustain the viewers' interest or to keep them guessing".[5] Chennai Online wrote "Despite its flaws, it is a commendable effort by the director to do something different".[6]
