Reception

edit

Roopa Radhakrishnan from The Times of India rated this movie 2+12 out of 5 stars and wrote "When a character reenters the film, the amplified background music and the protagonist's shock at seeing that man give a cue for the audience to be shocked at seeing that character again. But by that time, we have completely forgotten that character that it takes a second to register who it even is".[3]

Manigandan KR from Times Now rated this movie 3+12 stars out of 5 stars and stated "In all, Athomugam is a clean, neat suspense thriller that is worth both your time and money".[4] Sreejith Mullappilly from Cinema Express said "To conclude, Athomugam is one of those thrillers that has lots to say about mankind and its technological dependence. How I wish its writing matched its sincere ambitions!"[5]
