Reception

A critic from Sify wrote that "The director throws open a world full of ghosts and other super naturals without giving the audience any fright!" and added that "The story and screenplay has no nativity and the narration is low paced". [1] Jeevi of Idlebrain.com wrote that "Over all, it is an unappealing free make of The Sixth Sense". [2] A critic from Indiaglitz wrote that "Kaani, on the whole, ends up as a funny sort of film, which in the context of its genre and intent, is a major failing". [3]
