Reception
Malini Mannath of Chennai Online opined that "there's not much going for the film with its hotch-potch situations and lacklustre narration. A couple of suggestive lines have been surreptitiously pushed in, and the sound picturisations too border more on the 'sizzling' than the aesthetic". Sify wrote, "There are a couple of double meaning dialogues and a bit of glamour associated with a film aimed at the youth. Karunas as RJ Chilly chicken gives you a stomach ache. Music by debutant Aravind- Shankar is peppy but forgettable. Manikandan is adequate in the role while Shivani has enough glamour to please the masses. The film has nothing new to offer and moves at snail pace".
