Release and reception

Wife Off was originally scheduled to have a theatrical release, but had a direct-to-video release on 23 January 2025 on ETV Win. ^[3]

Bhavana Sharma of Deccan Chronicle was critical of screenplay and wrote in her review, "Wife Off had the potential to deliver a gripping thriller but ultimately falls short due to lackluster storytelling, clichéd themes, and poor technical execution". ^[4] Avad Mohammad of OTTPlay rated the film 2 out of 5 and wrote, "Wife Off is a film that has decent twists. But to enjoy them one has to sit through some silly scenes and predictable drama". ^[5]
