Release
Post-release, critic Balaji Balasubramaniam wrote "a lead pair that is to put it nicely not easy on the eyes, wooden performances, a laughably bad script, cheap comedy and a climax that is lifted from 'Kadhalukku Mariyadhai' (1997) are only some of the things that are wrong with this movie" and that "with some unbearable songs and song sequences and you have yourself the leading contender for the worst movie of the year".http://www.bbthots.com/reviews/2000/mkaadhal.html In contrast, a reviewer from ChennaiOnline.com wrote "Not much was expected of the film, with great publicity surrounding it, but surprisingly it has turned out to be a fairly engaging entertainer". The critic added "the takings are slightly old fashioned, but there are some twists and turns in the script" an "the second half could have been better worked out".
