| The Tamil version of the film opened on 1 June 2002 to mixed reviews with a critic noting "Dilshad as the blind Tirupathy has done his role well but Raju Sundaram and Nagendra Prasad have to pick up the nuances of acting. Jyothika has very little to do. The comedy of Karnas is good. However, the highlight of the film are the dances and the choreography. The three brothers have tried to {{sic|outbeat}} each other when it comes to dancing. Music by Deva is very average."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://movies.bizhat.com/review_123.php|title=BizHat.com - 123 Review.

Subhash because presenting physical impairment without hurting sentiments is not easy. And the director does come out unscathed. Much of it is situational humour and the dialogue, again by Subhash, accentuates the comic impact in some of the scenes."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/fr/2002/06/07/stories/2002060700940200.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030912053120/http://hindu.com/thehindu/fr/2002/06/07/stories/2002060700940200.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=2003-09-12|website=[[The Hindu]]|title="One Two Three"|date=2002-06-07|last=thron}}</ref> The Telugu version of the film released on the same day.
