The film does not boast of a big story or twist but the film is good fun while it lasts. The director’s quirky characterization and Pon Parthiepan’s tongue-in-cheek dialogues provide a wholesome entertainer, a complete laugh riot!".<ref>[http://www.sify.com/movies/uppu-karuvadu-review-tamil-pl1jsOdbcffbi.html sify.com]</ref><br />
