Jayamanmadhan (a duo) of Kalki wrote the plot reminded them of films like Kizhakke Pogum Rail and Puthiya Vaarpugal and felt Pandiyan and Ilavarasi were there because the film needed a hero and heroine. The duo however praised Gangai Amaran's music, Goundamani's comedy and acting of Chandrasekar and concluded there is youthfulness and songs with humming but the others are plain old.[5]
