Reception

edit

A critic from Rediff.com wrote that "This is one of those films that should never have been made".[3] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama rated the film one out of five and wrote that "If the film stands out in any department, it is Chekravarthy's performance. He excels in the brilliantly executed action sequences (in the scene when the goons try to beat him in the college canteen and towards the climax, when he single-handedly takes on all the members of the rival gang). He succeeds as an actor, but does not make an impact as a director".[4]
