Reception
Times of India wrote "Having set up a predictable, but decent premise in the beginning, the screenplay goes downhill in the second half".[7] Sify wrote "Tamil cinema has come up with yet another half-baked sports film Jada. Debutant filmmaker Kumaran has delivered a disappointing film with poorly written characters, shoddy screenplay and diametrically two opposite halves. While the first half revolves around 7s football, the director introduces horror elements in the second half and unfortunately both the genres are not justified".[8] Firstpost wrote "Jada is a confused mess that lacks a proper script and narration and is neither a sports drama nor a horror thriller and falls between two stools".[9] Indian Express wrote "what must have been a high-stakes emotional drama ends up as a dull genre-bender, because of the uninspired writing".[10] Baradwaj Rangan of Film Companion South wrote "Whether pure genre or a mix, what matters is the writing. And that’s all over the place. The football itself is reduced to a lesser version of the game we saw in the first half…".[11]
