Reception[]
The New Indian Express opined that "The director has painstakingly worked on the script in the earlier half and given it a fresh feel. However, he could have taken more effort in the second half and made it just as engaging".[8] Sify gave the film a verdict of "disappointing" and criticised the film.[9] Behindwoods gave the film a half out of five stars and wrote that "Technically, there is not much that deserves mention except for the effort of the crew to make the action sequences."[10]
