Production[edit]
Kishore DS, known for his role as a child artist, was roped in to play the main lead.[3][4]
Release[edit]
The Times of India gave the film two and a half out of five stars and wrote that "Uruthikol could have been a decent action romance about a happy-go-lucky guy’s progression into a revenge-seeking youngster, like say a Naan Mahaan Alla. But the writing and execution are both amateurish that the film never holds our interest".[5]
