Singakutty was released on 21 March 2008,Good Friday alongsideKannum Kannum,Sandai andInbaa.[4]Sify wrote "To put it politely, A.Venkatesh's story and presentation falls flat as he has tried to introduce a raw newcomer as a larger-than-life hero which is hard to stomach and quite irritating."[5]Rediff.com wrote "Venkatesh's screenplay has the right mix, even if the item and romantic songs prove a headache in their placement. Well aware of what a new hero's launch vehicle should be, he has set out to provide a good fare which satisfies everyone's appetite."[6]Cinesouth wrote, "Director A Venkatesh atones for the first boring half of the film with better second half", calling the first half a "cat" and the second half a "tiger".[7]
