Critical reception

Indiaglitz wrote "Debutante director R.S. Raja has tried to present "Maanga" as a film with loads of fun and horror elements though the film cannot be fixed under the "Horror-comedy" genre. The film also apparently aims to be considered as a science fiction but everything related to the scientific invention of the lead character is presented in a funny way. So one could not be clear whether the intention of such scenes was dealing with science or making us laugh".[9] The Times of India wrote "The film feels like a hodgepodge of movie references, bad science, and lazily written jokes put together in a manner that is hardly competent".[10]
