04Reception

The film was released on 3 March 2023 across Tamil Nadu. A critic from Maalai Malar wrote "Director Mithran Jawahar has directed the film with a conventional story and a different screenplay. He moves the scenes briskly by differentiating the characters and setting". Logesh Balachandran from The Times of India rated the film 2.5/5 and said "Ariyavan may not be a complete failure, but it lacks the substance and creativity needed to truly make an impact". Anusha Sundar of Cinema Express gave a mixed review "nothing could salvage this film that does not have its heart in its right place" 1 out of 5 starts. A Dina Thanthi reviewer gave a mixed review.
