Reception
editJeevi of Idlebrain.com opined that "If you are going to watch this film, my recommendation for you is to know the two line story of first half and watch the second half on the big screen. You will enjoy it to the hilt".[4][5] A critic from Sify wrote that "Debutante director Ramesh Sarangan tries to bring in a whiff of fresh air into an otherwise routine love story by introducing a pager as the central character between two lovers!"[6]
