Critical reception

Indiaglitz wrote "All said, `Madurai Sambavam', has some loose ends. But forget the logic, you an enjoy this earthy entertainer."[2] The Hindu wrote "Enough action and good performances are provided by the lead pair and Radha Ravi not to mention a nice cameo by Anand Babu but director Eureka has not made full use of these aspects, the climax proving a spoilsport."[3] B. Balaji wrote "Madurai Sambavam is another movie that features a rowdy as the hero. While most of those movies have the hero romance the heroine and clash with a cop, this one makes those two the one and the same person. The issues that this throws up ensure that the movie cannot be dismissed outright but the fact that those issues haven't been explored very convincingly or interestingly ensures that the film doesn't stand out much either."[4]
