The Hindu wrote "And if the story hardly affects you at any point, it is the treatment which leaves much to be desired".[3] Visual Dasan of Kalki wrote while the refugee camp flashback at the end of the vibrant film has more density and depth, Vinita's character and the imposed songs are occasional reminders that Kummalam is commercial cinema.[4] Chennai Online wrote "That the director is a debutant is no excuse, he should have been better prepared before he ventured. Surprising, that it's the same banner that produced a film like 'Sethu'!".[5]
