Release Seeman opposed the film's release citing that it showed the Eelam struggle in a poor light.
Reception Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India rated the film 2.5/5 and wrote, "Ottrai illustrates the aftermath of Sri Lanka’s brutal civil war and how abuse came from all directions - not just ethnic lines. The execution is a bit lacking, even though the ideas were interesting". A critic from News Today wrote, "In all, Otrai Panai Maram stands as a sincere, heartfelt portrayal of the human cost of conflict and resilience in the face of overwhelming odds".
