Critical reception
editThe film received mostly poor reviews from critics. Times of India gave 2/5 stars quoting that the film suffers from sloppy writing.[5] New Indian Express wrote "It requires great skill to write dialogue that feels at once both real and purposeful. Vandi’s dialogues, however, seem placed for no reason except to conspire to achieve its runtime of 150 minutes." giving it just 1.5/5.[6]
