Reception

[edit]

Thinkal Menon of The Times of India rated the film two point five out of five and wrote that "Lineman works as a tribute to people whose talent goes unnoticed".[3] Anusha Sundar of OTT Play rated two out of five and wrote, "Lineman is a film that has its heart in multiple places. It neither lets you understand the world the characters are set in nor has a streamlined vision."[4] Sreejith Mullappilly of Cinema Express rated one point five out of five and stated that "Lineman has a trenchant story but little power in its storytelling".[5] Latha Srinivasan of Hindustan Times noted that "Lineman is a well-intentioned rural social drama but it sadly remains superficial and doesn't engage you enough."[6]
