== Reception ==<br />
The film generally received unflattering reviews. Sanjith Sidhardhan of ''[[The Times of India]]'' rated the film 2/5 stars and wrote, "While ''Akashvani'' does show that effective communication can breathe fresh life into most failing marriages, it has nothing new to offer and is a flick that you wouldn't mind giving a miss".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movie-reviews/akashvani/movie-review/51077354.cms|title=AKASHVANI MOVIE REVIEW|work=[[The Times of India]]|date=19 February 2016|first=Sanjith|last=Sidhardhan|access-date=19 February 2025|archive-date=16 July 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240716172938/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movie-reviews/akashvani/movie-review/51077354.cms|url-status=live}}</ref> Arathi Kannan of ''[[Onmanorama]]'' gave the film the same rating and wrote, "While the film tries to get the idea across that people have their reasons to want to do different things in life, the thought is marred by the many challenges that it puts forth, the foremost being sitting through it, without ambling into sensible pastures".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.onmanorama.com/entertainment/movie-reviews/akashvani-kavya-madhavan-vijay-babu-malayalam-movie-review.html|title='Akashvani' movie: Tie the not|work=[[Onmanorama]]|date=19 February 2016|first=Arathi|last=Kannan|access-date=19 February 2025|archive-date=30 November 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241130071313/https://www.onmanorama.com/entertainment/movie-reviews/akashvani-kavya-madhavan-vijay-babu-malayalam-movie-review.html|url-status=live}}</ref> <br />
