Critical reception
Indiaglitz wrote "Director S B Kanthan deserves a pat for getting the best from his artistes. Though the movie seems to be an extension of Crazy Mohan's stage plays, the hilarious sequence makes it engrossing".[5] Balaji B. wrote "Jery is simply a big-screen version of one of 'Crazy' Mohan's stage dramas. It is clean and harmless but unfortunately it is also mostly laughless".[6]
