Sify said, "Director Indra shines with his comic writing that he makes us smile at constant intervals but as a film, "Tubelight" is just an average watch only because of the predictable  second half and climax." M. Suganth of "The Times of India" said, "What is frustrating about "Tubelight" is how its debutant director, Indra (who is also the composer of the film), fails to take his concept and turn into a cohesive film."
