Release and response
Upon release, the film received mixed reviews from critics.[2] Ahmed Naif from Sun displeased with its predictable storyline wrote: "The use of flashbacks and character introduction was lame.[2] Neither the order of scenes nor its transactions are worth being mentioned. The only good thing about this movie is Sheela Najeeb's performance; which is clearly the best I have witnessed during the year from a heroine.[2] Other reviewers in favor of its music, cinematography and Sheela's performance while the "weak plot" and storyline were criticised.[3] Twenty two housefull shows of the film were screened at cinema, making it the second highest-grossing Maldivian release of the year.[3]
