ETimes praised the film’s handling of action and surprise elements in its review. We wrote, “The best thing about Blast is in the small details. For example, the film’s biggest action twist doesn’t come from Arjun or Preity. And I know who you’re thinking, it’s not from Abhirami either. Instead, the film brings the larger action to a fourth person entirely, which makes for an interesting setup. Starting with Preity’s stunning fight sequences, the film has an action block every five to ten minutes.”
