== Reception ==
A critic from ''[[The New Indian Express]]'' wrote that "The deep bonding between a rustic grandpa and his city-bred little grand daughter, each filling up the emotional void in the other, is narrated with a fair amount of interest in ''Vannathupoochi''. The film carries a relevant message to the parents, on the importance of sensitising themselves to the emotional needs of their children".<ref>{{Cite web |date=10 August 2009 |title=Vannathupoochi |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2009/Aug/10/vannathupoochi-76191.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240308050347/https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2009/Aug/10/vannathupoochi-76191.html |archive-date=8 March 2024 |access-date=8 March 2024 |work=[[The New Indian Express]]}}</ref> A critic from ''[[Dinamalar]]'' wrote that Azhagappan should be commended for capturing the children's future and urban parents who forget the present and live mechanically and the children indecencies beautifully and vividly.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cinema.dinamalar.com/movie-review/67/|title=வண்ணத்துப்பூச்சி|work=[[Dinamalar]]|language=ta|date=18 August 2009|access-date=4 January 2024|archive-date=3 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211203155012/https://cinema.dinamalar.com/movie-review/67/|url-status=live}}</ref> In a mixed review, a critic from ''[[Indo-Asian News Service|IANS]]'' rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "Rasi Azhhagappan can be appreciated for taking a theme that is far from commercial cliches, but at the same time he fails to handle it with maturity".<ref>{{Cite web |last=D.
