Reception
M. Suganth of The Times of India opined that "We get a longwinded lecture on being human and helping others and for a moment, we think we are not in a movie theatre but in a seminar hall". Baradwaj Rangan of The Hindu wrote that "The characters are underdeveloped. The scenes have no punch. There’s not one believable moment". A critic from Maalaimalar called the film "different".
