Paresh C Palicha of rediff.com rated 2/5 stars and wrote "The film cannot be taken seriously and it turns out to be a miserable disappointment". Cochintalkies.com rated 2/5 stars and said "Watchable, But do not expect anything. A movie made out of desperation that would the exact sentence to define this movie. Njangalude Veettile Adhithikal with no doubt has a good story but mediocre script and lousy direction has ruined this movie Sify.com gave "below average" verdict and stated "There is no point in mincing words, Njangalude Veettile Adhithikal tests the patience of the viewer big time. Watch it at your own risk please!". Indiaglitz.com rated 5/10 stars and wrote "Even after with a convincing story and decent performances from the key players, the movie fails to impress, enthuse or amuse at any points of its narratives. The problem with the movie is that the whole theme is handled in a inept matter by K Gireesh kumar, whose script lines fail to bringing any impressions."

Nowrunning.com rated 1.5/5 stars and gave a "poor" verdict and wrote "From the levels of a normal family drama, the movie attempts to become a psychological thriller. Technically the movie doesn't bear the stamp of an experienced director. 'Njangalude Veettile Athidhikal' in all likelihood will struggle in theatres like uninvited guests in a party.". Unni R Nair of Kerala9.com rated 2/5 stars and said "The film seems just about OK, but fails to impress; it once again proves that it’s the script that makes or mars it all. In this case the script mars it all, despite the story being convincing and the key players delivering rather decent performances. The film, on the whole, fails to impress, excite or entertain." and concluded as "Unimpressive; poor scripting mars it all....Forgettable!!!".

The Times of India rated 3/5 stars and wrote "As likely as not it deals with a subject related to a mental malady, audience see the ghost of Manichithrathazhu here and there. One also wonders why certain scenes which could have been handled better with situational comedy. Overall the film is worth a watch for the subject that Siby Malayil has tried to deal with and has its heart in the right place.".

Composer Ratheesh Vega's album features three tracks. One is sung by actor Shajon and the rest by newbie singers. Though it boasts of no musical novelty, it's a playlist-friendly album with one melodic fast number and two other soft melodies. Shajon debuts as a singer through singing the track Maaye Maaye penned by Santosh Varma. The song is rhythmic and has a folk feel. Mazhavil Thundu by Sanup is a melody that sets up a hazy mood. However, it reminds you of many other hit melodies here and there. The song Oru Naal is included both in the male and female version by Joju Sebastian and Anitha. Rafeeq Ahamed's lyrics for the song are also haunting and romantic.
