Reception
Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote that "It's still a fascinating experience watching this actor [Karthik] in action, his endearing natural ease and spontaneity. But the fire in him is missing and the disinterest shows on the screen".[2] A critic from BBThots wrote that "One almost wishes Tamil cinema could be banned from making movies revolving around the army. Barring the occasional Roja, the Indian army has not fared very well in Tamil movies. As seen in movies like Unnai Kodu Ennai Tharuven, it has simply provided a different backdrop to have the same inane jokes and illogical stories. Indru, inspite of elements like terrorism and patriotism thrown in, is unfortunately another addition to this list".[3]
