Reception
The Times of India gave the film a rating of three out of five stars and stated that "The title of the movie itself is an example for that as the story speaks about one’s key to wisdom and contentment in life".[8] The New Indian Express gave the film the same rating and wrote that "Besides, the old-fashioned filmmaking approach, the slightly colour-drained images, and the mismatched background score make the film a bit of a chore to sit through".[9]
