Reception
[edit]Roopa Radhakrishnan from The Times of India rated the film 1+1⁄2 stars out of 5 stars and said "The performances of the Arimapatti Sakthivel cast are all right, with the exception of Pavan K. He is downright bad in his role."[3]
Manigandan KR from Times Now rated the film two stars out of five stars and said "On the whole, Arimapatti Sakthivel is a film that could have been a lot better if enough attention had been paid to narrating the story well."[4] Sreejith Mullappilly from Cinema Express rated the film 1+1⁄2 stars out of 5 stars and said "At some point in Arimapatti Sakthivel, Charle’s character tells his son to pursue his filmmaking and storytelling ambitions and give his love life a skip. As the film started to transition from a social drama into an actioner, I wished that Sakthivel had heeded his father's piece of advice."[5]
