Reception Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote "Not much variation can be brought in this subject, but the director has seen that his narration is neat, the scenes move smoothly and the songs appear at the right places". Cinesouth wrote "There is no depth in the story. Neither the screenplay is clear. One has to pity the plight of the director! It is a heavy assault on the audiences. But there are two redeeming factors: The free-flowing histrionic talents of Karan and the scintillating songs of Bharani". K. N. Vijiyan of New Straits Times wrote, "Cinematography is only passable with some shots out of focus [...] This movie is only for those who are curious about Monal and those who lost their hearts to Kunal in Kadhalar Dhinam.".
