Critical reception[edit]

A critic from Sify wrote: "Watching Nenjil makes you think- What a waste of time!"[5] 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".[6] 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".[7]
