Release



The 'Times of India' gave the film three out of five stars and compared the film to a thin crust pizza: "In that sense, you could call Kalam a thin-crust Pizza has everything you expect, but somehow doesnt seem fullfilling". 'The Hindu' wrote that "Save for the twist that makes you turn back to the screen with mild interest, Kalam is a rather uninspired horror show". 'Sify' stated that "'Kalam' is a watchable horror thriller. Not a bad way to spend an evening". 'Behindwoods' stated that "'Kalam', by no means, is a great horror movie. Its more of a thriller than horror ". The 'Deccan Chronicle' wrote that "One cannot help but reminded of Karthik Subburajs thriller 'Pizza' as most part of the film unfolds inside a bungalow. The saving grace is the unexpected twist in the climax and kudos to Robert Raaj for maintaining the suspense factor intact till the end".
