    The Times of India also gave the movie two stars and stated "The film does not engage the audience. It is so much pre-occupied with an infuriating surge of self-pity and some stereo-typed villainy. Save for the perennial charm on his face, even Mammootty fails to salvage a shoddily-written plot."

    Rediff.com's headline was "Face 2 Face is best avoided" and added "None of these gimmicks can salvage the film because of its weak plot and over-dependence on star power. "
