Reception
The Hindu wrote that "The ideas explored in Addham are universal, beyond region and language barriers. It’s not a perfect, bravura series but definitely worth delving into".{{Cite news|url=https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/reviews/addham-review-this-varalaxmi-sarathkumar-rohini-and-prasanna-web-series-is-worth-a-watch/article32870629.ece|title='Addham' review: Of duality and tricky areas|first=Sangeetha Devi|last=Dundoo|newspaper=The Hindu |date=16 October 2020|via=www.thehindu.com}} The New Indian Express gave the series a rating of two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "But, overall, Addham falls short of capitalising on interesting premises and characters".{{Cite web|url=https://www.cinemaexpress.com/reviews/telugu/2020/oct/16/addham-movie-reviewan-anthology-that-falls-short-of-expectations-20834.html|title=Addham Movie Review: An anthology that falls short of expectations|website=Cinema Express|date=16 October 2020 }}
