Critical reception[]
The Times of India paper gave 3.5/5 and wrote "Aa Drushya not only manages to entertain and engage those who have not seen the original, but it also proves to be a worthwhile watch for those who have seen Dhruvangal Pathinaaru too. This is where the makers of the film have succeeded. If remakes of good films from other industries are delivered like this, one can confidently ask for more."[14]
The Bangalore Mirror gave 3.5/5 and wrote " Ravichandran's parade of characters fill up the narrative in overall story"[15]
The New Indian Express gave 3/5 and wrote "Aa Drushya can be a thrilling watch for all those who want to see the mystery, keeping in focus Crazy Star Ravichandran."[16]
