Reception

Critical response

R. G. Vijayasarathy of IANS rated the film 2+12 out of 5 and wrote that " It is Prajwal who is a live wire of the film 'Sixer' which does not boast of a great story or a fantastic narration". [6] A critic from Rediff.com wrote that "Rangayana Raghu overacts and Aadi Lokesh should certainly change his stylised dialogue delivery. The camerawork is ordinary when compared to current Cinema. Sixer is a good debut for Prajwal and a film that won't bore you." [7] A critic from The Hindu wrote that "Director Shashank's skill in juxtaposing the murky underworld with the innocent yet confused relationship between a teenaged boy and girl stands out. However, the screenplay is patchy and situations unrealistic". [1]
