Release and reception
Sify.com's review noted it was a "well-made youth oriented film with an innovative story and a good climax".[3] A reviewer from the entertainment portal ChennaiOnline.com noted "it's a story of star-crossed lovers, and the director has managed to make it fairly appealing till the first half", adding "but then the innumerable twists and turns he introduces into the script keeps the audience wondering if the story would ever have an ending".[4] Balaji Balasubramaniam of BBThots.com wrote "the problem with Kavithai is that makes its key twist rather obvious and then makes us wait until the midway point to unveil it, but to the movie's credit, it recovers quite well and presents a fairly engaging second half that is not as completely predictable".[5]
