Seethakathi has refreshing work from most departments but the pacing and melodrama are big dampeners.

Firstpost

Seethakathi reminds us that it's still possible to respect and celebrate art through cinema without tampering with the soul of the former.

Rated: 4/5

The Times of India

As for Vijay Sethupathi, for whom the film happens to be his 25th, he comes up with a memorable performance that as weird as it may sound, is showy, but also somewhat restrained at the same time!

Rated: 3.5/5

Vishal Menon

Film Companion

Aided well by Govind Vasantha's non-intrusive music and a team of great actors, Seethakaathi doesn't just question the state of the business of our cinema, but also the state of its art.

Rated: 3/5

Nice conceit and decent execution. But it gets less and less plausible.
