Reception
Ponmaalai Pozhudhu opened to mixed reviews, with consistent praises for the performances of Anupama Kumar and Kishore. Baradwaj Rangan of The Hindu said, " Ponmaalai Pozhudhu could have been a Maro Charitra/Ek Duuje Ke Liye for the Facebook generation – but the film, too often, reaches for tired old tropes" and added "Kishore and Anupama Kumar, as the parents of Arjun (Aadhav Kannadasan), the protagonist, recede into their roles with quiet professionalism; "[9] IANS rated the film 2 out of 5, calling it "Good story, bad execution" and said, "Aadhav and Gayathrie hit it off as an aimless young pair, but miss the energy to create ripples with their performances. Kishore and Anupama Kumar as Aadhav's parents are the best characters in the entire film.",[10] The new Indian express mentioned " Verdict: The film is a promising effort by a debutant director."
