Soundtrack


The soundtrack was composed by Ilaiyaraaja, with lyrics written by Kasthuri Raja.




Reception


Indiainfo wrote, "Naploean sleepwalks through a role that he has done several times. Vineeth’s role evokes disgust instead of sympathy. Ravali tries her best to look the oompish village belle but fails. Illayaraja’s music and Khushboo are the only two good things about the movie. Vivek does provide some comedy, but only in the first half. Rajarajam’s camerawork is average". K. N. Vijiyan of New Straits Times wrote the film "should appeal to those who cannot have enough of village subject, complete with all the family-in-fighting that seems so integral with the story".
