Release

Pichuva Kaththi had a theatrical release across Tamil Nadu alongside eight other films, which became the most crowded release date of 2017 in Chennai. [4] The film opened on 22 September 2017 to mixed reviews, with the critic from The Times of India stating the film "despite a not-so-bad plot, Pichuva Kaththi doesn't succeed to engage the viewers because of its watered-down narration and ineffective sequences" and that "the climax of the film, which had ample scope for a riveting sequence, ends up as a mediocre sequence with unconvincing execution".
