Reception

Ji of Kalki felt it was hard that the story does not move until the intermission, and then the plot which moves becomes difficult, yet he praised Fathima Babu's performance, saying she manages but was critical of her makeup, he dismissed Deva's music as nothing great. He concluded the review by saying Gajendran could have kept at least four special features in the film. The film failed at box-office as Gajendran felt the films of Rajkiran which released one after the other created anticipation among audience and he erred by choosing an ordinary story for him.
