== Release ==<br />
''The Times of India'' gave the film two-and-half out of five stars and wrote that "But the biggest letdown is the climax, where the director totally abandons the game in favour of a tragic melodramatic ending that feels forced, and pointlessly ends the film on a downbeat note."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movie-reviews/aivarattam/movie-review/46559008.cms|title=Aivarattam Movie Review {2.5/5}: Critic Review of Aivarattam by Times of India|work=The Times of India}}</ref> A critic from [[Maalai Malar]] also gave the film a mixed review, despite praising [[Jayaprakash]]'s performance.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://cinema.maalaimalar.com/cinema/review/2015/03/13193506/Aivarattam-movie-review.vpf|title=ஐவராட்டம்|date=13 March 2015|website=maalaimalar.com}}</ref><br />
