S. Sudha of ''[[Rediff.com]]'' gave the film a rating of two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "On the whole, a commendable effort, considering it was completed with great difficulty".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sudha |first=S. |date=19 July 2006 |title=Yuga: Commendable effort |url=https://www.rediff.com/movies/2006/jul/19yuga.htm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220823064034/https://www.rediff.com/movies/2006/jul/19yuga.htm |archive-date=23 August 2022 |access-date=23 August 2022 |work=[[Rediff.com]]}}</ref> Malini Mannath of ''Chennai Online'' stated that "'Yuga' neither excites nor entertains".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mannath |first=Malini |date=25 July 2006 |title=Yuga |url=http://www.chennaionline.com/film/Moviereviews/2006/07yuga.asp |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060903115836/http://www.chennaionline.com/film/Moviereviews/2006/07yuga.asp |archive-date=3 September 2006 |access-date=21 February 2022 |work=Chennai Online}}</ref> A critic from ''Cinesouth'' wrote that "This is not a film on love, lust or gangsterism.

A little bit of 'wow,' and a little bit of yawn is what it turns out to be".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Yuga |url=http://www.cinesouth.com/scopes/reviews/new/yuga.shtml |url-status=dead |website=Cinesouth |access-date=8 March 2024 |archive-date=22 October 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081022230812/http://cinesouth.com/scopes/reviews/new/yuga.shtml }}</ref> Lajjavathi of ''[[Kalki (magazine)|Kalki]]'' wrote the director wants to add the supernatural to the scientific subject, but the science gets spoiled in the beginning as it is not tied properly.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=லஜ்ஜாவதி |date=30 July 2006 |title=யுகா |url=https://archive.org/details/kalki2006-07-30/page/n81/mode/2up |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20240330155844/https://archive.org/details/kalki2006-07-30/page/n81/mode/2up |archive-date=30 March 2024 |access-date=30 March 2024 |magazine=[[Kalki (magazine)|Kalki]] |page=80 |language=ta |via=[[Internet Archive]]}}</ref>
