A tweet read, “#Mirage - 3.5/5 Another stunning crime thriller from @jeethu4ever , yet again The movie starts straight away with the story, giving the audience a seat-edge thriller. It takes some time to settle, but slowly picks up, & by the interval, it shifts gears @YoursAsifAli & @Aparnabala2 reunite once again after the blockbuster Kishkindha Kaandam #Aparna’s performance is effortless & realistic, while #AsifAli plays an online investigative reporter with conviction. #VishnuShyam’s music is gripping & adds great pace to the thriller, especially in the 2nd half The interval block was bloody unexpected from #JeethuJoseph, & many unpredictable sequences lead to a climax packed with two major twists that left the audience in awe Overall, this is a must-watch theatrical crime thriller on the big screen before spoilers or reveals take over the internet. GO FOR IT!! #MirageReview.”

Another tweet read, “Watched #Mirage Templated Thriller Packed With Twists Making wise it's the best Jeethu film in a while. Bt his strength i.e, the writing is just ordinary. Fast paced. Plenty of twists. Bt there's no grip. Illogical & Predictable. #AsifAli gud. Aparna & Hakkim OK. DECENT WATCH ⅗.”
