Reception

Uthaya Sankar SB's criticisms of Tamil literature in Malaysia entitled "What Tamil Writers?" (New Straits Times, 11 February 2004) drew a response from R. Karthigesu.[1]

Dina Zaman calls him "honestly blunt" in an article she wrote in New Straits Times (4 July 2001)[2] while Rachael Philip admits that he is "undeniably talented" in New Straits Times (28 August 2005).{{Citation needed|date=August 2015}} Amir Muhammad refers to Uthaya as "one of our brightest literary stars and has won many awards" in The Edge (19 November 2001) and "a local Haruki Murakami" in New Straits Times (28 January 2005).{{Citation needed|date=August 2015}} "Uthaya’s particular gifts lie in his narrative skill and playful deconstructions of the story form. He easily ranks among the finest writers in this country because his seriousness of purpose is wedded to an admirable lightness of touch. He has fun with the stories, and the fun is infectious" says Amir Muhammad in New Straits Times (13 February 2002) and "He has been one of our most prolific and consistent creative writers for over a decade" in Malay Mail (23 July 2008).{{Citation needed|date=August 2015}}

He is also known as "a writer who does not fail to capture the attention of his audience with his outspokenness and, not to forget, provocative introductions" as mentioned by Cheah Phaik Kin in New Straits Times (2 December 1998).{{Citation needed|date=August 2015}}
