Reception

Gopika S of Times of India gave it a rating of 3.5 out of 5 and stated that "Director Adhil Maimoonath Asharaf has hit the mark with his debut movie". [12] Anna MM Vetticad of Firstpost gave it a 3.5 out of 5 and stated that the film is more than its attractive packaging and sunny surface. [13]

Cris of The News Minute wrote, "The writers, Vivek Bharathan and Sabaridas Thottingal joining Adhil in the scripting play it smart by making the characters themselves blush with embarrassment and laugh aloud, looking at the cheesy letters they wrote in the past. The laughs and the recollection only make their story dearer to you." [14]

A critic from OTTplay gave it a rating of 3 out of 5 stars and stated, "If viewers are searching for a simple, beautiful love story, then the film is a perfect choice. The film veers into predictability when it comes to story, but the charming performances of its lead cast become its saving grace." [15]
