Dhinamdhorum was released on 14 February 1998.[2] A critic fromDinakaran noted "this is one of the very rare and good films among recent releases in Tamil".[3] D. S. Ramanujam ofThe Hindu wrote, "Nagaraj, with his biting, down-to-earth dialogue, is bound to earn the encomiums of the viewers [...] Here the director is the fast-talking, trouble-shooting friend of the hero and his screenplay, based on his story, has appreciable narrative values". He also appreciated the cinematography.[4]
The success of the film prompted the director to addDhinamdhorum as a prefix to his industry name.[5] Despite the strong performance of the film, Nagaraj found it difficult to establish his career as a director and several of his later films includingVinnai Thoduvom, with the same cast, during 1998 were cancelled.[6][7]
