^ "Siva Karthikeyan's 'Manamkothi Paravai' ". The New Indian Express stated "A romantic comedy low on humour". But forget the lengthy second half and some clichéd sequences, 'Manam Koththi Paravai' will stick to your hearts". IndiaGlitz rated 0 out of 5 stars stating "On the whole, the movie may resemble the likes of 'Kalavani' and 'Uthamaputhiran'. The Times of India rated 2.5 out of 5 stars stating "Ezhil seems to have tried to do a Kalavani here but those familiar with his repertoire will realize he is more comfortable with melodrama". Parts of it are entertaining and parts of it, endearing". With not too many events packed into it, the movie might come across as a long haul if you are looking for a love story that is both entertaining and endearing.

After the lead role in Marina and an important role in the recently released 3, Sivakarthikeyan is taking up a full-fledged lead role again for Manam Kothi Paravai. It was initially expected that Yuvan Shankar Raja, whom Ezhil had worked with in his previous release Deepavali, would compose the music, but as the budget of this film could not afford to have Yuvan as the music composer, Ezhil opted for D. When they asked him how the shooting of Manam Kothi Paravai was proceeding, he made them listen to the songs tuned by D. Producer Ambeth Kumar and Ranjeev Menon are friends of director Ezhil.
