Release and reception
Thiruda Thirudi was released on 5 September 2003[11] and became the second most successful Tamil film of the year.[12] A critic from Screen noted "it was an offbeat love story marked by good performance by Dhanush which makes it a breezy entertainer."[13] Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote "ARMED WITH a well-worked out success formula, new director Subramaniam Siva confidently enters the fray in Indian Theatre Production's "Thiruda Thirudi". He compensates for his flimsy storyline with screenplay that moves at full speed till the first half, sagging slightly only in the second, and dialogue that's completely in with the trend with all kinds of weird coinage typical of today's youth".[14] Visual Dasan of Kalki praised the performance of Dhanush, Chaya Singh and Manikka Vinayagam and direction but panned the unnecessary vulgar scenes and dialogues.[15]
Remakes
The film was remade in Telugu as Donga Dongadi (2004) by the same director.[16] It was also remade in Kannada as Sakha Sakhi (2005) where Chaya Singh reprised her role.[10]
