Release and reception

The film was released alongside the low budget films Girivalam and Gurudeva and did not fare well at the box office.[3]

Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote that "It seems like a script written in haste, with not much serious thought going into it. A disappointment from the team of Sunder C. and K Selvabharathi (director and story dialogue writer respectively), who'd given us such a breezy entertainer like 'Ullathai Allithaa'. Thaka Dhimi Tha is just wasted steps!"[1] A critic from BizHat wrote that "Sundar C’s hilarious narration of a routine story makes it enjoyable".[4] Kalki called it an age old love story and called Vivek as the only positive.[5] Sify wrote "Thakathimitha directed by Sundar.C, is yet another campus love story with no big surprises as the story and presentation is already seen in umpteen films in the same genre. This time the hero is Yuva Krishna a debutant and giving his company is Vivek in a full length role. Of course Vivek hogs the show but is as stale as yesterday’s sambar!"[6]
