Reception
The movie was critically acclaimed but commercially failed.[3] The Times of India wrote " The film pretty much follows the formula of vigilante films but brings a couple of new things to the table — for one, the protagonists are hardly ones you would expect in such a film."[2] Sify's Moviebuzz rated it good.[4]
