Reception

Logesh Balachandran of The Times of India who gave 2 stars out of 5 stars after reviewing the film stated that,"Naan Mirugamai Maara would have been better if the director had made this film a decade ago".[15] Avinash Ramachandran of Cinema Express who gave 2.5 stars out of stars after reviewing the film stated that,"It is quite a shame because Naan Mirugamaai Maara could have been cut out of the same cloth as a John Wick or a Nobody, but the overt sentimentality and emotional prodding make it a rather middling experience".[16] G. Gowtham of India Herald, wrote "Overall, Satya Siva has written a compelling plot that keeps us interested. Although there are sentiments, this may not be an option for family audiences, and it may be a takeaway for gory violent action film fans".[17] Naveen of My Kollywood who gave 3.2 stars out of 5 stars after reviewing the film stated that "The emotional sequences have worked out in parts. Ghibran’s background score elevates the action sequences. Raja Bhattacharjee’s camerawork is impressive."[18]
