Critical reception

edit

The Times of India gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "Director Jeevan has tried hard to come up with a story that hasn't been told on screen before...Unfortunately for him, his twists aren't backed enough by logical sequences, thereby making the film and its story totally unconvincing" and further stated, "Amara...comes across as a tiresome affair".[4] The New Indian Express wrote, "a meandering screenplay and insipid narration ensures that the film is a tiring, monotonous experience...With nothing going for it, ‘Amara’ is a wasted effort".[5]
