Reception
A critic from The Hindu opined that "'Tamil Rockerz' season 1 review: Predictable storytelling that wastes potential".[5] A critic from The Indian Express wrote that "The creators of Tamil Rockerz deserve credit for turning the gaze inwards. The series shines the light on the moral and ethical bankruptcy of the industry that breeds all sorts of problems".[6] A critic from Hindustan Times said that "Arivazhagan's web series [sic] has the potential, but the treatment of the story is so generic that it fails to keep one invested".[7] Arun Anthony of Deccan Herald gave the film 2 out of 5 stars and said "The story is muddled with many subplots and overly emotional sequences that make the viewer lose connection with the narrative."[8]
