Soundtrack

The soundtrack was composed by debutant Steeve Vatz, and lyrics were written by Madhan Karky, Jerry Spilz, Radha Mohan and Steeve Vatz.

Critical reception

Uppu Karuvaadu received positive reviews upon release. Behindwoods gave 2.5 out of 5 and concluded,"A decent flick that could crack you up!"[7] Indian Express mentioned "The film should have been shorter with a crispier narrative but with more positives than negatives, Uppu Karuvadu is certainly a fun film!".[8] Sify wrote "Radha Mohan’s Uppu Karuvadu proves one thing-no matter who's the director, who stars in it or who the music director is, a film needs a good script and arresting presentation to keep audiences hooked. The film does not boast of a big story or twist but the film is good fun while it lasts. The director’s quirky characterization and Pon Parthiepan’s tongue-in-cheek dialogues provide a wholesome entertainer, a complete laugh riot!".[9]

gollark: Kit was basically just *guessing* what would work and reading the docs without understanding the horrors of ABR.
gollark: I'll test it myself, yes, but you'll at least have mostly working code.
gollark: Yes, but you can actually test yours so I won't have to essentially do all the work myself.
gollark: R. Danny has a much more complex algorithm for accurate timing. PRs welcome!
gollark: Reminders with a due time less than or equal to the current time but which are not yet flagged as expired or failed.
