Release and reception

Idhu Oru Thodar Kathai was released on 11 April 1987.[3] The Indian Express wrote, "Film is a world apart. Money is needed to translate ideas on to celluloid, and again, lucre is a dominating, if not the only preoccupation of most of the people who matter in films. So much so, creativity and close-to-life ideas tend to be crushed under the iron feet of the worshippers of Mammon. That's exactly why a film like Idhu Oru Thodarkadhai makes you happy."[1]
