Critical reception
Sify wrote "On the whole Neelan definitely has the stuff in him, for a first timer his screenplay and narration is impressive, but towards the end goes overboard."[2] Behindwoods wrote "Overall, Alibaba is a movie that relies on the suspense element to carry it through and the director has understood this very well, he is on the button."[3]
