The film was launched at a ceremony in February 1998, with Kamal Haasan attending as the chief guest.[4]

Release

The film struggled to find distributors, owing to its atheist theme and received a limited release across cinemas. A critic compared it to the several devotional movies releasing in Tamil Nadu during the period calling it "more mature and better presented" but that "the extremity of the propaganda puts one off". The critic praised Velu Prabhakaran's efforts noting that the maker "believes in his convictions and the dialogs sizzle with intelligence."[5]
