Reception

The film was released on 9 June 2023 across Tamil Nadu. Rating the film 0.5/5 stars, Logesh Balachandran of The Times of India wrote "when makers forget to develop a one-line into a proper feature script, this is what the result will look like" and that "though the core idea is good, Bell suffers from amateurish filmmaking and lacklustre performances, ultimately resulting in a disappointing viewing experience".^[4] Prashanth Vallavan of Cinema Express wrote "the film struggles to present a story that was mangled, to begin with" and "despite some sincere performances, the problems are further exacerbated by an unfocused creative vision".^[3]
