Viewers felt that the ‘Raayan’ actor delivered an enjoyable rom-com after ‘Pa Paandi,’ effectively capturing Gen Z relationships, breakups, and rebounds.

Despite limited screen time, Indhuja and Priya Prakash Varrier received praise for their performances. Many also lauded GV Prakash’s music, saying it added charm to the film. One social media user shared on X, “A clean teen rom-com with a fun and relatable story. Dhanush keeps it simple, avoiding unnecessary complications with his lighthearted narration. Mathew Thomas is outstanding with his one-liners and is easily the crowd favourite."

Several other viewers hailed Dhanush’s directorial venture as another success, calling it a fun rom-com with an engaging screenplay, even if the story felt familiar. Many particularly enjoyed the climax, finding it highly entertaining. Pavish Narayan’s performance reminded them of a young Dhanush, while Mathew Thomas kept the audience hooked. Anikha, Rabiya, Ramya, Venkatesh Menon, and Siddharth Shankar also delivered strong performances. GV Prakash’s music earned appreciation for elevating the film’s overall appeal.

Another review highlighted, "A classy and free-flowing first half with good fun. A completely different side of Dhanush as a director post-Raayan—he portrays a middle-class guy falling for a high-society girl. Great production value, music, and Mathew Thomas’ hilarious one-liners."
