Reception
editKausigan of Kalki appreciated the performance of Vijaya and Cho's humour but felt Sundaram's dialogues lacked his signature touch and in regards to Krishnan–Panju's direction he felt how can the feast be good if the ingredients and utensils bought for feast are not perfect and no use of pointing out the cook.[5]
