Sify gave the movie two stars out of five and stated " With the absence of basic logic at most times and a style that was perhaps okay eons ago, this film is tough to be digested even for the hardcore fans of" Mammootty.
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. "
