A critic from Screen wrote that "One Man Show, produced by Girish Vaikkom under the banner of Aswathey Films and directed by debutante Shafi, tries a novel approach as far as narration is concerned". [2] A critic from Sify wrote that "The Tenkasipattanam team does not get their story correct,as in the second half the film drags on. Still thanks to Jayaram and Mukesh,the film just manages to keep afloat". [3] A critic from Kalakeralam.com wrote that "Since their last rib-tickler Thenkasippattanam was a laugh riot, one would expect Rafi-Mecartin to ting their next film with a profuse dose of humor. But, the maiden directorial venture of Shafi, One Man Show lacks the spark, verve and fun pace of Thenkasippattanam". [4]
