Though it could have been made into a breezy entertainer, it ends up as an unsatisfactory watch”. gave 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, “Sri Balaji’s script does lack logic in a few places and sags at times, but taken with its humour quotient, it’s still a reasonably fresh attempt at a feel-good love story”. wrote, “It’s heartening that writer and director Sri Balaji has consciously steered clear of clichés in his maiden attempt. Without a hero who challenges the cantankerous, villains who are ruthless, a comedy track that’s disjointed, stunts which are unbelievable and duets that come with unnatural jigs, Sri Balaji has made Kullanari Kootam fairly engaging”. wrote, “Like the proverbial curate’s egg, KK is good in parts, but could have been better”. wrote, “The film is mildly engaging, and a clean wholesome entertainer”. Behindwoods gave 1 star out of 5 and wrote, “The plot had the potential to be woven into an interesting tale, had only the director made an attempt to impart some airtight packaging in the content. KNK very slowly unravels, takes various detours in its path, the scenes and dialogues get boring and the concept flounders. The connection of the audience with the characters does not happen and the amateurish performance of most of the artists further adds up to this factor”. Indiaglitz wrote, “Kudos to Sri Balaji and Vishnu for rendering a movie that is entertaining and light without any overdose of emotions.
