Jayamanmadhan of Kalki wrote that the story of Pudhiavan is like old rice, but served with curdled onions and grated dates, making it delicious nonetheless.[4] Kumudam praised the acting of cast and noted it seems like director did not have confidence to make a full fledged romantic film otherwise, why would he add all those unnecessary murders and other complications in the latter part? and also felt it was unconvincing of protagonist who was portrayed as angry man running away from cops.[5]
