A critic from The Times of India rated the film three out of five stars and wrote that "It is this world building that is the biggest strength of Byri, which has the rootedness of Vetri Maaran's Aadukalam and Vada Chennai (AV Vasantha Kumar's realistic visuals help here), a bunch of raw actors like in Angamaly Diaries, and the energy of City Of God".
