Reception

Critical reception

The film received mixed reviews from both critics and audience.[4]

Sify gave 3 out of 5 stars and said "Pazhaya Vannarapettai has its moments but the amateurish performances spoil the show."[5]

Anupama Subramaniam from Deccan Chronicle wrote "Cinematographer Farooq does a great job with his lighting and composition and brings alive the milieu of the movie. Music is functional. An honest attempt from a debutant — definitely worth a watch![6]

M Suganth of The Times of India rated the film with 3/5 stars stating that the director shows confidence in film making with good support from cinematographer Farooq who captured the 'nocturnal sights' of north Madras so real that makes the viewer difficult to believe that the film is actually a low budget fare.[7]
