Reception

IndiaGlitz wrote "Though the movie has enough suspense and thrills, it certainly lacks pace in the second half and goes monotonous. But for Sathyaraj, the movie certainly lacks sheen in the second half".[3] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote "It has a knot which had the potential to be turned into an engaging suspense thriller, and it has a couple of twists and turns that take the audience by surprise. But if only the debutant director had taken more care on weaving his screenplay, and had a tighter grip on his narration! There are too many loose ends here and too many distractions. So the knot with potential goes unexplored and the only interesting bits are the couple of twists and surprises in the script, the rest a hotch-potch of situations".[4] Visual Dasan of Kalki praised the director for building the suspense, Sathyaraj's performance and Vadivelu's humour and concluded saying it was satisfying watching a detective movie after a long break.[5]
