Release and reception
The film was released on 1 June 2012 alongside Thadaiyara Thaakka, Mayanginen Thayanginen and Manam Kothi Paravai.
Malini Mannath of The New Indian Express wrote that "Idhayam... offers nothing novel or exciting for the viewers". A critic from Sify opined that "If you decide to see the film, go armed with loads of patience. For its dim-witted writing and sloppy direction, Idhayam Thiraiarangam is ultimately a tiresome watch". A critic from Behindwoods stated that "The list of what Idhayam Thiraiarangam needs could just be endless. Starting from a script overhaul to the casting decisions to the director’s method of storytelling, there are many things that needed to be fixed".
