Reception

The film received mixed to positive reviews from critics.

Savitha Padmanabhan of The Hindu wrote, "The performances throughout are convincing. This is a role written for Satyaraj and he is very good at what he does. Devyani too takes her role seriously and has put in a lot of effort. But Ranjith has nothing much to do. Vadivelu makes his presence known, and that too in a double role, but he is a bit irritating at times. The song sequences are eminently avoidable except perhaps the songs where the matinee idol MGR makes a brief appearance, thanks to graphics. There is nothing to write home about the music by Deva, while B. Kannan's camera work is functional. Except for these drawbacks, "Ennamma Kannu" is quite entertaining and enjoyable."

Balaji Balasubramaniam of thiraipadam.com wrote, "The dialogues are sharp at many points and help move the story forward in spite of the familiar situations. Vadivelu also raises some chuckles with a double role (a policeman and a pimp) with lots of in-jokes about cops in other movies. The mix-up scenes are quite funny though not related to the story. The other strength of the movie is Satyaraj. After a really long time, he gets a role he can really sink his teeth into and relishes it. Devayani looks pale throughout but fits the bill as far as the role is concerned. Ranjith is adequate and Sarala gets to again indulge in her favorite activity of thrashing Vadivelu."

Lolluexpress.com wrote, "Satyaraj did a OK job in this movie considering his previous movies in which he was irritating. It was nice to see Satyaraj in action. Ranjit was totally irritating. The movie runs with Satyaraj's usual lollu. Another Vadivelu Called "Telex Pandian" gets introduced as a Police officer and Sarala gets introduced as Vadivelu's wife. It was really funny when Vadivelu calls 'Kovai' Sarala as "Simran". Its worth only 40/100 that too for Satyaraj and Vadivelu's comedy."

Chennaionline.com wrote, "The director has kept his narration fairly interesting most of the time and the film moves at a fast pace. The Vadivelu comedy is at times hilarious. The late MGR dances here too with Devayani and Satyaraj, thanks to computer technology."

The film enjoyed moderate success at the box office and completed a 50-day run on theaters.
