Reception

Sify wrote "Like all? made in Madurai? films, it is another gory tale that traces the story of four youngsters who have gone astray due to parental neglect at an early age. Madurai films seems to be losing steam as the subject and treatment is the same in film after film since Sasikumar?s pathbreaking Subramaniapuram happened in 2008". The New Indian Express wrote "There is no freshness in the script, the narration too lacklustre. There are too many characters, and a huge star cast, none of them making any impact". Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "The idea isn't new, nevertheless it's relevant", commenting on its similarities to Subramaniapuram and Maathi Yosi (2010), and criticising the "noisy" background music but praising the songs and some of the cast performances.
