==Reception==<br />
*''Behindwoods'' wrote "Sundar has managed to pack a punch with the narrative style of the movie and the climax tugs at your heart. Besides, he has also diversified from his style of movie making to take up a serious subject of friendship and betrayal. On the whole, but for a few glitches here and there, Nagaram is not bad a watch."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-reviews/reviews-2/nagaram-movie-review.html|title=NAGARAM MOVIE REVIEW - TAMIL MOVIE NAGARAM MOVIE REVIEW|website=behindwoods.com}}</ref> ''Sify'' wrote "It is engrossing and moves like a thriller, with rapid twists and turns leading to a stunning climax".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sify.com/movies/nagaram-review-tamil-pclxKyefgdabc.html|title=Nagaram|website=Sify}}</ref> ''Nowrunning'' wrote "<br />
Despite such flaws "Nagaram" works because of its racy script and neat execution."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.nowrunning.com/movie/8277/tamil/nagaram-marupakkam/2822/review.htm|title=Nagaram Marupakkam Review &#124; Nagaram Marupakkam Tamil Movie Review by V.S.
