Reception
[edit]D. S. Ramanujam of The Hindu wrote, "When a director is aware that he has a weak, oft-repeated plot on hand, either he must bolster the proceedings with a well-planned screenplay or concentrate on entertainment elements to camouflage this drawback. Debutant director Vishnu Hasan, who has written the story, screenplay and dialogue (and a producer too) buckles under this workload".[4]
