ETimes verdict
ETimes review for the film reads, “Swasika does the heaviest lifting. Hers is the reactive role, all despair and sudden eruptions, the grumpiness just a default setting on a face with plenty boiling beneath, and she brings that interior out wonderfully. Vijay Antony arrives properly only in the closing stretch, as a sugarcane worker named Ezhumalai who stays unbothered by the chaos around him. The part is simpler, yet he is far more expressive than he usually is, genuinely alive in the face. Ajay Dhishan is good as the impulsive son who needs to grow up quickly, and Balaji Sakthivel plainly enjoys his troublemaker.”DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
