Reception

Janani K. of India Today wrote "GV Prakash's music, especially Senai Kootam and the background score, elevates the protest scenes." [21] Anandu Suresh of The Indian Express wrote "While GV Prakash’s background score during the more mundane and romantic moments is below average, he shines in the adrenaline-fueled sequences, and his songs also deserve commendation." [22] Roopa Radhakrishnan of The Times of India noted that Prakash's background score"provides the goosebumps and amplifies the highs" while also stating that the songs felt "stretched". [23] Srinivasa Ramanujam of The Hindu wrote "Major contributions are also by the music director - GV Prakash, whose tunes delicately balance melody and mass, based on what unfolds on the screen."
