Critical reception
The film opened to negative reviews from critics after its theatrical release on 29 June 2011. A reviewer from Behindwoods.com noted "Udhayan is predictable and has nothing extraordinary to offer."[5] A critic from The New Indian Express noted "with a story-line that is oft-repeated and predictable, it's a passable entertainer".[6] The Hindu wrote "Settling scores in a bloody fashion can get you nowhere says Udhayan (U/A). It has been said several times before but director Chaplin, a Pandiraj associate, who takes off on his own for the first time tries to impart the same with a storyline that juxtaposes sickle culture of the small town with the values of an average city household, thus keeping viewer interest alive".[7] The film did not perform well at the box office.[8]
