The Times of India wrote "A couple of minuses like that, however, doesn't stop the film from being moderately entertaining".[6] Behindwoods wrote "Netru Indru Naalai seems like a mish mash of many Tamil movies (old and new) cooked in excessively greasy gravy of crude dialogues and a story of loser-hero-stumbling-upon-his-fortune-accidentally."[7] Indiaglitz wrote "The credit goes in entirety to director Lakshmikanth, who has managed to infuse all ingredients that would appease action-buffs, at the same time will lure youngsters to the cinema halls."[8]
