Reception
The film was released on 23 September 2022 across Tamil Nadu. A critic from Cinema Express gave the film a mixed review, noting that "though it's not the first film that talks about the injustices served to the underprivileged, Aadhaar is a compelling watch that achieves what it intends to without much force-feeding--if you forgive the not-so-great craft".[6] A reviewer from Times of India gave the film a mixed review, writing it is "a passable mystery that is undone by too much melodrama".[7]
