Critical reception
The Hindu wrote, "A lot of thought has gone into the screenplay and as the loose ends are tied up towards the end, it’s evident that many earlier sequences and supporting characters have all been there for a reason...Despite shortcomings, it’s commendable that the film doesn’t stick to the formula and play safe".[5] The Times of India gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote, "The film might not rank high in terms of visual aesthetics, but it does suck you into its twisted world where everyone seems to have an agenda of his own", further adding that while "the first half tests your patience", "the second half is riveting and everything falls in to place quite well in the third act".[6] idlebrain.com gave 3.25 out of 5 and called it a "decently made film which is identifiable to all social media users".[7]
