Reception

[edit]

Deccan Herald wrote that "Story, screenplay, dialogue and lyrics by Girish Puttenchery needs a special mention with nay a dragging moment. Direction by Vinu is also good. Tilakan, Kaviyoor and N F Varghese and Sangeetha render their roles well. Needless to say, Mammootty steals the show. He plays the common drunk as well as the repentant husband or son. Looks like the superstar had a whale of a time, especially in those scenes of cackling, hooting and stumbling with Jagdish and Kalabavan Mani playing second fiddle".[5]
