ETimes rated ‘Nadikar’ 3 out of 5 and wrote, “Jean Paul Lal's Nadikar starts off with the lavish and extravagant life of a 'superstar' David Padikkal. There is humor and some foreshadowing, some of it effective and some so hard to catch. Interestingly, it's not as angsty as one might expect with such a subject. The writing is very sloppy in places, and some minor details were off-putting. There is this one scene where they were filming something where Indrans plays the parent's role. The costume was so glaringly out of place. The feeling of artificiality crops up in some of the scenes that require more naturality. A lot of behind-the-scenes elements were covered well. Most of the drawbacks are saved by the presence of the suave man on screen. The film is by no means a masterpiece, but it is an entertainer.”
