Reception

The Times of India gave the film a rating of two out of five stars and wrote that "The problem you have with the movie is the director’s attempt to create suspense at some places. You feel cheated and taken for a ride".[6] The Hindu wrote that "While it’s refreshing to see a filmmaker explore a new format and show courage in not introducing force-fit commercial elements, it’s a pity when a good attempt is letdown by tiresome narration".[7]
