But the second half has not even these." She criticised the performance of Saravanan and the treatment of Ranjitha, but praised the performance of Vijay and the comedy subplot featuring R. Sundarrajan and Chithra.[2] K. Vijiyin of New Straits Times wrote on 2 July 1994, "Do not miss this one if you love politics and follow political events in India with relish."[1]
