Release and reception

[edit]

Ninaikka Therintha Maname was released on 14 August 1987.[5] The Indian Express wrote, "The simple knot of the novel is overburdened with songs (especially), and fights. It might have helped if the film was shorter, and the treatment austere and aesthetic".[6] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki found Ilaiyaraaja's music as the only saving grace of the film.[7]
