Critical reception
Times of India wrote "Vinmeengal, the debut effort of Vignesh Menon, showcases the potential within this budding filmmaker and the fresh cast, but in the end, you are likely to be left with mixed feelings. The director gives you an emotionally-charged story in the film’s first half with characters that are immensely likeable, but criminally ignores them in the second half to deal with characters and events that aren’t half as engaging".[7] Behindwoods wrote "Vinmeengal is likely to work with the audience who would patronize serious and emotion laden films but not for consumers of commercial cinema".[2] Sify wrote "On the whole, Vinmeengal is a clean and honest film with noble intentions and hats off to Vignesh".[5] Now Running wrote "Unfortunately, Vinmeengal doesn't arouse enough interest. Nor does it lift spirits as endeavoured".[4]
