Release and reception

Ondru Engal Jaathiye..! was released on 31 July 1987, and distributed by Moogambikai Cine Distributors.[4] V. S. Thomas of The Indian Express wrote, "Rehashing old plots with added frills has become a trend and [Ondru Engal Jaathiye] is another example of this. However as the artistes are new and the treatment fresh it does not disappoint the audience though old-timers may consider it old wine in a new bottle".[5] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki wrote that Ramarajan multitasking was not the path to success, and noted that the film looked like the reverse of Padagotti (1964).[6]
