Reception
'The Times of India' wrote in its review "The comedy dialogues are quite tacky and unentertaining, that one cant believe the talented team behind it, who specialise in humour, couldnt forsee their impact on screen"
'The New Indian Express' reviewed that "Asokan somehow manages to keep things moving, and, if anything, he proves that he is a fairly skilled director. He has only begun, and one expects hell get better with his next directorial" and went on to say "Though its not the sort of film that sticks with you, an ample amount of fun can be had if youve got the patience for it."
