However, A critic from Maalai Malar gave a positive review citing " Director Sam and Praveen has directed the film with the same concept of memory erasing and memory inserting. Kudos to him for his new venture." and gave 2.75 stars out of 5 stars.[13] A critic from Dina Thanthi noted that " Directors Shyam and Praveen make the psycho-thriller story with a lively screenplay without boring the idea of erasing one's memory and replacing it with another."[14]
