ETimes rated the film with a solid 3.5 out of 5 and our review read, “Malayalam has never had a shortage for female leads who can carry a film and draw people to theaters. Jyothirmayi was spectacular in the role of Reethu, a perfect example of under-utilised female talents in the industry.
She was very convincing in how Reethu's mood changes day after day and how the conditions, retrograde amnesia and anterograde amnesia, were affecting her life. One could just watch Reethu's daily struggles without feeling bored because of how it was presented. Each frame caught her beauty and how she is one with the surroundings.
The art team did a fantastic job in setting up everything around Reethu—the chaos, the order, and everything else.”.
