Reception

Nenjam Marappathillai is considered a Tamil cinema classic.[7][8][9] Director Ameer Sultan named it one of his most favorite films and said, "Nenjam Marappadhillai not only breaks free from the formulaic screenplay but director Sridhar does something revolutionary by introducing new faces in it. Recently I read in a paper that the film has been remade in Hindi. This is the power of Sridhar’s script".[10] Cinematographer P. C. Sreeram stated, "I still remember how terrified I was while returning home after watching Nenjam Marapathillai and Athey Kangal. Spooky themes were great entertainers".[11] M. N. Nambiar said that it was one of his favourite films he acted in.[12]
