Reception

Film critic R. G. Vijayasarathy of IANS wrote that "'Odahuttidavalu' makes a poor comparison with the original 'Porkaalam', but still is a good film for a one time watch because of Ravichandran and Mallika". A critic from Chitraloka.com wrote that "Odahuttidavalu will certainly appeal to the Crazy Star’s fans and the female audience who want to see such sentimental films again and again".
