Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu opined that "Acting to avoid a contrived storyline and melodrama is fine. But then, in a film, something has to keep happening for the tempo to be sustained". Chennai Online wrote "It's a bland affair, where you wait for something to happen. Like, a twist or a turn, or some conflict. And then you keep waiting and waiting, till you realise that there's no more wait since the film has come to an end".
