And its allegiance becomes clear."[18] Ashwin Ram of Moviecrow gave the film’s rating 2 out of 5 and wrote "An insane yet interesting conflict presented with a screenplay that should have been done decades ago and an emotional drama that doesn’t have any tension or rooting factors."[19] A critic for Cinema Vikatan wrote that "Taking a familiar village story, the team of 'Pattathu Arasan' has created a boring film with scenes that are not new."[20]
