Reception[edit | edit source]
Indiaglitz wrote "It is a movie sure to appease action-buffs. Had Vinecent Selvah concentrated more on screenplay and ensured that more suspense elements are attached, this Perumal would have blessed his devotees ardently."[2] Behindwoods wrote "Overall, Perumal is a potent idea gone wrong. The theme had the ability to give suspense and thrills that would have made for engaging viewing but the director has failed to sustain either of these, it does not make for interesting viewing."[3] Rediff wrote "Apparently, the makers decided that nothing much was needed to make this into a complete movie because there's nothing else."[4]
