Audience and Critical Reception

While fans lauded Suriya's dual performance as Kanguva and Francis Theodore, some felt the screenplay fell short. India Today mentioned that the film was “one of the loudest films” with high decibel levels across performances and background music by Devi Sri Prasad, leaving some viewers craving for quieter moments.

Online Leak Impact

Unfortunately, Kanguva faced piracy issues shortly after its release, with the film available for illegal download on torrent platforms like Tamilrockerz and Filmyzilla in multiple resolutions, which could impact further box office collections.
