Indiaglitz wrote "Debutant director Anand has to be appreciated for choosing a poignant story without restoring to gimmicks." Behindwoods wrote "Kanna on the whole, is a well made product. The director must be appreciated for what he has brought out on screen." Sify wrote "Director Anand has come out with a sweet movie with a nice message that shows how an adolescent mind due to immaturity falls to infatuation. However the trouble with the film is that it moves at snail pace, and is made like a mushy television serial." Rediff said "movie that tries very hard to be subtle and sensuous, exhibiting the Art of Love but instead falls flat on its face."
