Reception edit
Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India rated this film 3 stars out of 5 stars and noted "A tighter screenplay and a more suspenseful build-up could have elevated the film to a truly gripping experience."[3]
Manigandan KR of Times Now rated this film 3 stars out of 5 stars and noted "Oru Nodi might not be an exceptional thriller but it certainly is a sincere and commendable attempt at narrating a gripping investigative story that keeps you guessing right till the very end."[4]
Akshay Kumar from The New Indian Express rated this film 2 starts out of 5 stars and noted “With all that being said, Oru Nodi has safely distanced itself from indulging too much on the romantic track and also thankfully stays away from a typical ‘Tamil cinema cop song’.”[5]
RK Spark from Zee Tamil said "The screenplay does not let it be thought of, even though there are logic mistakes in a few places in the film."[6]
