The film was originally scheduled to release on 6 August 2004, but the Thiruvananthapuram Regional Censor Board refused to certify the film citing "excessive violence" and had referred the film to the revising committee.Sify reported that distributors and exhibitors are shocked because "Jayaraj's earlier film4 The People had more violence and close-up's of hands and legs being chopped off which was passed by the same censors".[2]
A critic fromSify wrote that "it's hard to find one redeeming factor in this utterly lame brain, stupid film [...] the lead cast of newcomers are all a major let down and technically the film is a big disappointment. All the seven songs in the album sound similar and the picturisation is low brow".[3]
The film underperformed at the box office. However, the songs "Themma Themma Themmadikkatte" and "Nillu Nillu" were trendsetters among Kerala youth at that time.[4]
In 2018, the song "Nillu Nillu" (meaning: stop, stop) became viral in the social media applicationTikTok, with users posting videos of them stopping moving vehicles for dancing in front of it with the song playing in the background. It called the attention ofKerala Police who condemned the act for public nuisance and blocking vehicles on the road.[5][6]
In the late 2022, the song "Themmadikkatte" became viral in social media with the users posting dancing videos to it. The song was featured in the Tamil filmDragon (2025).
