Release and reception
Ji of Kalki wrote Pavithran messed up in script and direction and panned double meaning dialogues and the way Vichitra's character was treated but praised Vaiyapuri's humour and Suvalaxmi's natural acting and concluded saying many of the audience are going towards English films due to these kind of films coming out.[5] The film failed both commercially and critically with the director Pavithran stating, "My only intention was to give the producer some profit. But finally I could satisfy nobody, both the producer and my fans".[6]
