Reception

Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "Bharathiraja has worked on R. Selvaraj's story and has come out with a screenplay that drags at times. But crisp, intelligent editing takes care of things".[3] Visual Dasan of Kalki gave the verdict, "above average".[4] Sify wrote, "There is no newness in the story as it is predictable as this village story is too dry and dull to absorb".[5] The film won the Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Film,[6] and Thenmozhi won for Best Dialogue Writer in the same ceremony.[7]
