Release

The film was described as "a film definitely worth watching" by a critic from Indolink.com and cites that "it is bound to touch your heart and make you wonder about the power of love",[2] Indian Express wrote "The plot is almost always predictable, and at times, even degenerates into blatant stupidity. But the director presents all this with such a straight face, that you find yourself lapping it all up".[3] The film went on to win the Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Storywriter for Rajakumaran.

The success of the film led to a Telugu remake as Ninne Premistha, starring Srikanth, Soundarya and Nagarjuna in guest role which was critical and commercial success.[4] It was remade in Kannada as Ninne Preethisuve, starring Shivrajkumar, Raasi and Ramesh Aravind. Malayalam film Pranayamanithooval was partially inspired from this film.
