The Indian Express wrote, "Adharmam is a promising debut from Ramesh Krishnan. [..] His screenplay is clearly etched, and there is confidence and seriousness in his approach".[4] Thulasi of Kalki wrote this film which deals with the subject of sandalwood abduction completely justifies it which makes us wonder whether Veerappan has financed this film. She also felt there were too many fights and most of them were plagiarised but praised the cinematography.[5]
