The film was released on 15 September 2011. Upon release the film received negative response from critics.[3] Haveeru Daily felt the film "deceived" the audience in the name of action thriller; "I highly doubt if the project team was even sure of what kind of movie they were planning to make. It is a total mess between a serious action movie and scoop comedy".[3] The film was further criticized for remaking several shots from Jim Abrahams's parody film, Hot Shots! Part Deux (1993).[5]
