Reception

The Hindu wrote that "The ideas explored in Addham are universal, beyond region and language barriers. It’s not a perfect, bravura series but definitely worth delving into".^[4] The New Indian Express gave the series a rating of two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "But, overall, Addham falls short of capitalising on interesting premises and characters".^[5]
