Release and reception
Ondru Engal Jaathiye..! was released on 31 July 1987, and distributed by Moogambikai Cine Distributors. V. S. Thomas of The Indian Express wrote, "Rehashing old plots with added frills has become a trend and is another example of this. However as the artistes are new and the treatment fresh it does not disappoint the audience though old-timers may consider it old wine in a new bottle". Jayamanmadhan of Kalki wrote that Ramarajan multitasking was not the path to success, and noted that the film looked like the reverse of Padagotti (1964).
