| Professor Krishnan is a role model; honest and austere, he is a staunch follower of [[Swami Vivekananda]]. His principle in life is "Duty First". He swears by his profession that he shall serve his students to the best of his abilities and, to that end, will live as a bachelor. There is a feeling of admiration and great respect for him among his students. But love strikes his heart in the form of a student, Radha. Even though he tries to resist her, he succumbs to her beauty and love. Krishnan's orderly life is in shambles.

| In ''[[Sport and Pastime]]'', T. M. Ramachandran wrote, "Screenplaywright Javar Seetharaman, cameraman Thambu and director K. Shankar appear to have jointly worked hard and contributed their talent in turning ''Aandavan Kattalai'' into a good movie, but they have compromised a great deal to make it a money-spinner. They are capable of better work and, if they had carefully attended to all the details, they would have perhaps made ''Aandavan Kattalai'' a very notable film".<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Ramachandran |first=T.
