A critic from Maalai Malar gave 2.75 stars out of 5 stars and wrote "Director Sam and Praveen has directed the film with the same concept of memory erasing and memory inserting. Kudos to him for his new venture."^[8] A critic from Dina Thanthi noted that "Directors Shyam and Praveen make the psycho-thriller story with a lively screenplay without boring the idea of erasing one's memory and replacing it with another."^[9]
