Reception

A critic of Dinamalar gave 2.75/5 stars by praising the social message and intent while criticizing the amateur storytelling. ^[8] Ashwin S of Cinema Express gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote "Vembu wants to empower women; it wishes for a better world for them, but in the end, it shows the struggle of a woman’s family life rather than her career. It wants to be technically strong, but is flawed to a fault. It tries to be a film with a message for the audience but is let down by its story. " ^[9]
