Release and response

The film was released on 11 October 2011. It received negative response from critics pointing similarities between Bollywood comedy-drama film Ishq (1997) and Kundan Shah's family drama Dil Hai Tumhaara (2002).[2] Ahmed Nadheem from Haveeru wrote: "This is the most predictable Maldivian film I have watched so far. From the start to end, you can foretell the next scene, how its organized and so does the climax. Hiyy Yaara Dheefa is one boring-very much boring-Maldivian film I have watched".[2] The film did not succeed financially, but performances were moderately acclaimed by critics.[2]
