==Reception==<br />
The film was released on 10 August 2005 across Tamil Nadu. A critic from [[Sify]] gave the film a negative review, adding that "Sindhu Tolani as the female crusader and vigilante is adequate though she has to improve in emotional scenes" and that the film "needed more sensitive treatment".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sify.com/movies/alaiyadikuthe-review-tamil-pclvK7iffhicj.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220615002742/https://www.sify.com/movies/alaiyadikuthe-review-tamil-pclvK7iffhicj.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 June 2022|title=Alaiyadikuthe|website=[[Sify]]}}</ref> A critic from NowRunning.com wrote "though the movie is realistic, relevant and to some extent revitalizing, it misses on a point that you do not feel or sympathize for the pains suffered by victims of lascivious men".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nowrunning.com/movie/2372/tamil/alaiyadikudhe/540/review.htm |title=Alaiyadikudhe Review &#124; Alaiyadikudhe Tamil Movie Review by P.V.Sathish Kumar |publisher=nowrunning |date=2005-07-13 |access-date=2022-06-15}}</ref> <br />
