== Reception ==
Abhinav Subramanian of ''[[The Times of India]]'' wrote of the film, "A pivotal moment hinges on Moorthy getting his leg trapped in the ship's engine room machinery, a convenience that forces the moral reckoning rather than letting it emerge from the tension already in play. It's an easy way to force a turning point."<ref>{{Cite web |title=Aazhi Movie Review: Sarathkumar commands a tense maritime standoff |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movie-reviews/aazhi/movie-review/128813186.cms |access-date=2026-02-27 |website=The Times of India |language=en}}</ref>

''[[Asianet News]]'' critic wrote that "Sarathkumar's menacing 'make-over' and acting, the thrilling survival scenes that take place in the middle of the ocean, and the emotional contribution of the pet dog in the film are all huge pluses for the film."<ref>{{Cite web |title=சரத்குமாரின் ‘ஆழி’ தாய் கிழவியை விட சூப்பரா? சுமாரா? விமர்சனம் இதோ |url=https://tamil.asianetnews.com/gallery/review/sarathkumar-starrer-aazhi-movie-review-leyofc9 |access-date=2026-02-27 |website=Asianet News Tamil |language=ta}}</ref>
