After the film's release actor Surya received many death threats from various communities in India. Various communities criticised that actor/producer Surya had deliberately manipulated the real events in his film, in view of making a clash between "Vanniyars" and "Irulars" communities. After receiving death threats, Surya was provided special police protection at his residence.
