Kaalaiyum Neeye Maalaiyum Neeye was released on 15 January 1988.[5] The following week, N. Krishnaswamy of The Indian Express wrote, "In the melange of incidents and medley of characters, artistes tend to get lost". He also did not like how both the lead actresses, Radhika and Lakshmi, were underutilised.[1] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki criticised the film for having a poetic title and contrastingly violent content.[6]
