Release

The Hindu gave the film an unfavourable review and wrote that "What we get is Yuddham Sei as imagined by a maker of mega-serials".[1] The Times of India gave the film a rating of one-and-half out five stars and stated that "There is sign of spark here, but one cannot expect audiences to put up with such amateurishness just because it’s a low-budget film".[3]
