Release and reception

Puyal Paadum Paattu was released on 21 October 1987, during Diwali. The Indian Express wrote, "The campus scenes have impact. The sprinkling of good dancers, the exotic costumes, the catchy tunes and rhythms used in the songs and the general air of youthful vivacity come over beautifully". Jayamanmadhan of Kalki felt after the interval, the film lacks momentum and composure and felt rushed.
