Critical reception
Pavithra Srinivasan of Rediff.com gave the film two out of five stars and noted that "Solla Solla Inikkum has good principles and starts out meaning well and were it not for the dull and clichéd presentation, might have actually stood a chance of clicking with its audience".[3] S. R. Ashok Kumar of The Hindu wrote, "The director, who is also in charge of story, screenplay and dialogue, seems to have lost his grip right from the first reel".[4] The New Indian Express wrote, "The theme seemed an interesting one. But unfortunately, the interest couldn't go beyond the concept stage".[5]
