All Performances Neat & clean, முக்கியமாக #Vijaysethupathi & #Muthukumar & Vadivel Kodangi standout  Performance👌👏BGM decent support 👍👍ஆனா main issue – slow narration. Investigation genre க்கு தேவையான gripping highs & twist-based episode endings இல்ல. நிறைய இடங்களில் Romba Lag Feel ஆனது. Length ஆ குறைச்சு Inum interesting Elements oda portions strong வச்சிருந்தா நல்லா வந்திருக்கும். Verdict: Just an Above Average series (2.75/5).. Expected more from @VijaySethuOffl & #Manikandan 🙌.”

Another one, ‘SmartBarani’ commented, “#Kaattan…An mystery investigative drama with very slow paced screenplay, excellent performance from everyone 👍 Backstories of Vijay Sethupathi wasn't surprising or interesting enough to hold our attention 😒 felt bit lengthy for the story it has to offer 🥱Parvathy scenes, Vijay Sethupathi love portions felt like a fillers.. didnt made any impact to the story, This could have been decent watch if they trimmed some parts and made more gripping 🥲 Liked Muthu Kumar characterisation 😅 no emotional connect 😪Overall a underwhelming series !! Rating: 2.5/5.”
