Release.
The film opened in September 2000 to mixed reviews, with a critic from BBthots.com stating "the first half, with its racy screenplay, high-tech gadgetry and clever ideas, moves surprisingly fast and keeps us entertained", but "the second half is so full of tired cliches and overwrought sentiments". Likewise, The Hindu wrote the film "begins with engrossing and sophisticated action from the word `go' which continues till the end of the first half, but action tapers into melodrama and tedium, especially in the last few scenes". The film did not perform well commercially at the box office.
