Critical reception

Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "The story meanders in rudderless fashion before suddenly waking up to an action-packed climax". Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote, "A disjointed script, weakly etched characters, lackluster narration and some poor performances make viewing 'Idhayathirudan' a test of one's patience". G. Ulaganathan of Deccan Herald wrote, "It is said to be a love story with a difference but the script is poor and there are too many duumy characters like Nasser who is supposed to be a don in hiding. Saran could developed the story interestingtly but loses grip".
