Reception

The film was released on 22 July 2022 across Tamil Nadu. The critic from Times of India noted that it was "an anti-caste love story that could have been more powerful", adding "Nadhi flows seamlessly in the first half, quenching all our thirst. But as the film progresses, it loses its track leaving the audience drained out".[6] Vignesh Madhu of Cinema Express wrote that "Not really. The characters or their conflicts aren't new. Their tragic ending isn't new. There's no resolution. There's no hope. Just like this film" and gave 2 stars out of 5.[7]

A critic from Dina Malar gave the film a middling review, rating it 2 out of 5 stars.[8] Likewise, a critic from The Hindu also gave the film a mixed review.[9]
