Critical reception
Chennai Online wrote "Durai is a movie for die-hard Arjun fans".[3] The Hindu wrote, "The 'Action King' lives up to the sobriquet once again — stunts are a major draw of 'Durai'(U/A). It is his treatment of the story that is found wanting".[4] Pavithra Srinivasan of Rediff.com wrote, "If you're a keen Arjun fan, you'll get plenty of opportunities to whistle and cheer. If not, you can at least doze your way through".[5]
