Iraivan opens to mixed reviews
The film, which revolves around the hunt for a psycho killer, has opened to mixed reviews from the audience. OTTplay critic P Sangeetha wrote, "Iraivan is strictly for the fans of the genre! The film is loaded with mindless violence and bloodbath that numb your mind after a while. The illogical screenplay leaves many questions answered and the emotional scenes barely work. Jayam Ravi is the only saving grace in this grim thriller."

Fans, too, have given a thumbs down to the thriller.
One of the users wrote that it was a horrible experience for a psychological movie. Another user wrote that he was a survivor of abuse from Ravi and the director in the name of a movie called Iraivan.
