Netizens laud the climax sequence of this Deeno Dennis’ directorial debut. One netizen wrote, “The movie runs plain without any high moments for almost 2 hours, Mammootty has nothing much to do either, Movie gains energy towards the last 20 odd mins, which is decently done with some unique mannerisms of Mammootty n some cool shots & bgm Overall: Jus a ok watch.”
