==Review==
The film, Dharani received mixed reviews. It is a movie without dance numbers. The songs that appear are contextual. Reviewing for Times Of India, M Suganth gave 2.5 * and said that the first half was bleak and unforgiving... the first half makes us empathize with the three lead characters"... especially "Ajaykrishna’s pitiable state in the first half makes us empathize with his character" . "Despite the sincere storytelling, Dharani feels clichéd as the plight of the leads seem all-too familiar", however, "... the actors make us care for these characters".<ref>{{cite web| url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movie-reviews/dharani/movie-review/46069674.cms| title=Dharani Movie Review TOI}}</ref>
