Reception
The movie was critically acclaimed but commercially failed.[4] The Times of India wrote " The film pretty much follows the formula of vigilante films but brings a couple of new things to the table — for one, the protagonists are hardly ones you would expect in such a film."[2] Rohit Ramachandran of Nowrunning.com rated it 3/5 calling it a good attempt.[5] Sify's Moviebuzz rated it good.[6] Indiglitz called Vengayam an attempt to trigger awareness.[7] However, Behindwoods Review Board called it "More than just trivialities"[8]
