Given his performance and the way the character explores the emotional aspect of loneliness by the end of the movie, which most viewers can relate to, many predicted that Fahadh Faasil's Ranga would go down in Malayalam film history as one of the most iconic gangster characters.

Even though a number of gangsters with tragic or heartbreaking pasts have been portrayed in Malayalam cinema, Ranga stands out due to his unique demeanour and ability to convey a wide range of emotions, even though the film does not go into much detail about him. For the majority of them, the film's final thirty minutes are its finest because they gradually reveal Ranga's vulnerability and true self.

“20 seconds is all it takes for us to empathize with a god damn gangster & feel the pain that he’s suppressed all along!,” wrote a user on X.

The audience is drawn to Ranga not only for his sentimental part but also for his peculiar and tense tactics, which he employs throughout the film.

Aavesham's fun factor is further enhanced, according to some, by the character played by Fahadh Faasil, one of Malayalam cinema's most gifted young stars, who excels at every scene in the movie.

People all around the country have embraced the character as a remarkable one in the present, praising the actor and the makers for bringing it to life on screen, even though it is only available in Malayalam on the OTT platform.
