Reception

M. Suganth of The Times of India gave the film 1.5 out of 5 stars stating that "Only a couple of plot developments make us sit up. One involves the interval twist, which plays with the expectations that non-linear narratives have built in us and another about the mystery of the missing diamonds. But for the rest of the time, the film gets us close to a state of stupor, making us wonder if the title is a fair warning to us, audiences." Avinash Ramachandran of Cinema Express gave 3 out of 5 stars and stated that "Now, we just have a handful of names doing the rounds, and if Jai’s recent filmography is anything to go by, then he seems to have become calculative and has bravely taken to this course." Chennai Vision gave the film’s rating 3.2 out of 5, stating that "Sam CS makes a mark with his BGM and rest of the technical aspects are good." Thangaraja Palaniappan of News Bricks after reviewing the film stated that "Jai has showcased himself in good action roles more than as a romantic hero."
