Reception

BizHat described "It's interesting to watch the father – son combination together in Jore. Sibi Raj has matched up to his father's acting and gives a good account as an actor". [4] Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote "Incidentally, makers shouldn't give titles that lend themselves to rhyme or pun. You are so tempted to call "Jore" a bore. The shallow storyline, loose screenplay and inept direction — all by Selva — are the bane of "Jore"". [5]
