Soundtrack



The film score and the soundtrack were composed by Deva. The soundtrack, released in 2004, features 5 tracks with lyrics written by Piraisoodan, Na. Muthukumar, Kabilan and Annamalai. 'Indiaglitz.com' said : "Deva's music falls flat".

Reception



'Indiaglitz' described the film as "A typical 'masala' film, Jore with its loose screenplay and amateur twists and turns, can be rightly called as as('sic') 'bore'" and criticized that "director Selvah has given old wine in a new bottle". But praised the comedy scenes : "Interestingly, it is Sathyaraj and Vadivelu who provide relief to the audience in the movie". 'Bizhat' described "It's interesting to watch the father - son combination together in Jore. Sibi Raj has matched up to his father's acting and gives a good account as an actor".
