Reception
editThe film was released on 12 April 2007. A critic from ChennaiOnline wrote "it's not a hyped film or one that boasts of big names, but it has its light moments, and it's a much better crafted film than the director's earlier effort, Unakkaga Mattum (2000)".[3] A review from IndiaGlitz.com noted "though it is a beaten-to-bush story, Chinni Jayanth, with lesser known artistes around, has tried his best to come up with an engrosser".[4] A reviewer from IndiaReel noted "trying to present a serious movie on friendship, Chinni and new face Ritheesh have succeeded in giving a hip-roaring comedy film and tested the patience of audience in each and every scene".[5] Lajjavathi of Kalki wrote with films like Mozhi is taking Tamil cinema to next level, Kaanal Neer has not recovered since the time of landlord and added Chinni Jayanth as director did not score as much as actor, called background score grating, cinematography was okay and screenplay as dull and concluded saying Chinni should come out with better script next time.[6]
