Reception

A reviewer from Behindwoods wrote that "There is the gender issues of sensitivity, the voice marauding for the dignity of labour, the ill effects of caste, religion and the so called social strata. In piecing together the collective happenings in one go, Jasti warms up to provide a fare, high in quality and content save for those little deviation when the  plot widens and anxiety looms large from the audience perspective. Clearly, the USP is the cinematography of Varun Chaphekar and Aditya Javvadi. Sweekar Agasthi’s music is the sort which lingers long after the effect has sunk in. There has to be a final thread to the anthology, which Jasti expectantly reserves it in the climactic act. Nothing forced on the audience is the deserving pat on the production house."[8] Haricharan Pudipeddi of Hindustan Times stated "Unlike the original, Care of Kaadhal is set in Madurai which is a bigger city than Kancharapalem. In C/O Kancharapalem, the city played a character by itself but it isn’t the case with the remake. Another aspect where the remake fails to match the original is in the casting. The original introduced 86 debutant actors and each character looked so authentic on screen. Apart from these few minor grouses, Care of Kaadhal works as effectively as the original and it leaves you smiling in the end."[9]
