Reception
A critic from Dinakaran noted "Kasturi Raja, though he has designed his song scenes in the usual folk culture style, has picturised the other scenes and human passions and sentiments in a remarkably, brilliant way". Ji of Kalki wrote this is a film that has come up with the ultimate goal of making the masses of fans tear up the mat in ecstasy. D. S. Ramanujam of The Hindu appreciated Vijayakanth's dual role performance, the cinematography and music, but felt Roja was wasted.
