Reception

The film connects the missing dots at key points to keep them engaged. Though it unfolds at its own pace and tests the viewers' patience at times, Kumbasaram does have its moments."[3]
Filmibeat.com also gave a positive review with a rating of 3/5, stating the films as "A perfect emotional thriller which impresses with a brilliant story, narrative and amazing performances by the actors."[4]
