A critic from Sify wrote: "Watching Nenjil makes you think- What a waste of time!"^[6] Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote "Nenjil is laughable in patches you could say, but the romantic thread is so common and run of the mill that it pulls down the interest quotient terribly".^[7] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote that "There's nothing here that can hold you to the film. It's a lacklustre script, insipid narration and performances that fail to excite".^[8] Lajjavathi of Kalki praised the performances of lead pair, cinematography and called Vadivelu's humour as both positive and negative and also praised director for keeping scenes short without dragging but felt after interval, the sag could have been avoided.^[9] Cinesouth wrote "It is quite enjoyable to see the little tiffs between Navdeep and Aparna and how they hide their love within their hearts. But this is something we have seen umpteen times, so one gets impatient for the film to get a move on".^[10]
