Reception[edit]
Critical reception[edit]
Anna Mathews of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "The raw feel of the film gives it an immersive feel, but what could have been a really powerful story falls short because of shortcomings in the script."[3]
Vignesh Madhu of The New Indian Express gave the film a rating of 3.5/5 and wrote, "Although the film doesn’t boast of anything groundbreaking in terms of its writing, its such competent execution, with the right mix of thrills, that makes it an engaging watch... on the big screen."[5]
S.R. Praveen of The Hindu wrote "O.Baby explores feudal society through the minds of a few young people, who want to break free from the stifling atmosphere."[4]
Swathi P. Ajith of Onmanorama stated that "O.Baby stands as a commendable endeavour by Ranjan Pramod to bring forth a profoundly serious theme to the public."[6]
