Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote "The story is all about star-crossed lovers belonging to two different religious backgrounds. But it's commendable that the director doesn't make this an issue for their estrangement. For, what separates them is not religion but a misunderstanding, with Jenny wrongly suspecting Prabhu of seducing her best friend. It was a matter that could have been easily sorted out. But the director prefers to drag the story through many dreary episodes, till he feels it's time to bring it to a finale".[4]
