Reception

C. R. K. of Kalki gave a mixed review for the film citing that film which promised to revolve around a revolutionary woman but breaks anticipation around it and the film wanders around aimlessly. He also noted that Bhanupriya and Chandrasekhar were wasted but appreciated Goundamani's performance.[2] The film ran for over 100 days in theatres,[3] and Manorama won the Cinema Express Award for Best Comedy Actress.[4]
