Reception[edit | edit source]
Critical response[edit | edit source]
Chennaionline.com wrote: "A neatly crafted screenplay with some engaging situations, catchy lines, well etched characters, sensitive treatment and some fine performances, all make debutant director Samuthiraikani's maiden directorial effort Unnai Charanadainthein worth watching.[2] Balaji Balasubramaniam from Thiraipadam.com commented: "Barring the weak third act, the movie is engaging as it places one person in the middle of both a romance and friendship and gets the other two to fight over him".[3]
Awards[edit | edit source]
- Tamil Nadu State Film Award Special Prize
- Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Story Writer - Samuthirakani
