"Now running" wrote, "Even though the Director has tried hard to work a presentable potion, the end result is not so lip-smacking for the audience. The screenplay and narration lacks spice, verve and conviction". "Rediff" wrote "A virtually invisible script by writer-director SS Stanley and meaningless songs, Stanley cannot seem to get it right in the horror that is Kizhakku Kadakarkarai Salai". "Thiraipadam" wrote "Kizhakku Kadarkarai Saalai has a likable lead pair, an interesting setting for their romance and a heartless villain to  set up roadblocks. But weak and confusing characterization overrides all that to result in a tepid romance".
