Release and reception
On 4 June 2007, an advertisement for the film featured in a newspaper had attracted the attention of many. Mansoor Ali Khan had comically pleaded for a good theatre for his film.[4] The film was originally slated for release on 15 June 2007 alongside the big-budget film Sivaji but due to shortage of theatres in Chennai city, Mansoor Ali Khan postponed the release of his film. It was finally released on 6 July 2007.[5] A week after the film's release, another ad for his film had attracted the attention of the public with mentioning the film Kireedam (2007).[6] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote, "It's a film that one goes to without any expectation. So there's not much disappointment either".[7]
