== Reception ==<br />
On 7 August 1987, V. S. Thomas of ''[[The Indian Express]]'' wrote that the film "is an attempt at entertainment with plenty of sentimental incidents tagged together but the effort is not crowned with success as there is a sense of abruptness and artificiality throughout".<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=P9oYG7HA76QC&dat=19870807&printsec=frontpage&hl=en |title=Two-in-one |last=Thomas |first=V.
