Reception
The film received mixed reviews from critics who praised the performances of lead artists and criticised the plot and humour. Rediff gave the film 2 stars out of 5 and wrote that "the offending script make Rajesh’s Vasuvum Saravananum Onna Padichavanga a silly and tasteless film that does not deserve your time."[13] Indiaglitz gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "This film has many rib tickling, entertaining and engaging moments. But when can we expect an entertainer from Kollywood that does not pass demeaning judgments on women and tease someone for their looks to make others laugh?."[14] The Times of India gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "What Rajesh has done is [..] taking bits and pieces from his previous successful films and giving us a new film that feels familiar. The only difference is that he manages to succeed... to an extent".[15] India Today rated 1 star and criticised that "Rajesh's two-and-half-hour script has nothing, but female bashing, making fun of plus-sized women, double-meaning-ed, innuendo-ed dialogues and absurd one-liners, which are sweet-coated as humour".[16]
