and at the same time make you think of the realities of life". S Saraswathi of Rediff gave 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "Aadhalaal Kaadhal Seiveer is a must watch. A simple and honest screenplay with a liberal dose of realism coupled with some excellent editing, but most of all, the totally unexpected climax, sets this film apart". Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "Nearly two years after Rajapaatai, Suseenthiran bounces back with AKS that has a neatly told story and a finale that touches an interesting emotional acme". Indo-Asian News Service wrote, "Suseenthiran handles the film bravely without compromising on the message it sets out to deliver to its audiences. Any story dealing with a social problem is either extremely preachy or overtly melodramatic, but what we get here is an intelligent output sans cliches. Kudos to the director for writing and narrating an impactful story". Behindwoods wrote, "AKS is a 'slice of life' tale topped by a really impactful climax. Suseenthiran is back in form with a short impactful teenage romance".
