Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "Suspicion, murder and the aftermath form the fulcrum. At a superficial level, it is a chilling story of sibling rivalry, but the suspense, when it is unravelled, has some surprises in store". [5] Sify wrote:"On the whole, Ayyanar is a mass film that is found wanting in tempo and packaging". [6]
