Reception[edit]
Thinkal Menon of The Times of India opined that "The raw portrayal of money lending in the city by Zion was a good attempt, but the execution, which involves some over-the-top sequences made the premise insipid. A few thrilling moments and more appealing characterisations would have made it a better watch".[6] Avinash Ramichandran of The New Indian Express wrote that "The characters are interesting, no doubt, but the making is uninspiring".[7]
