Vellachi was released on 1 March 2013.[7] Maalai Malar wrote that though the opening scenes were moving slowly, the latter part of the story was fast paced with love and conflict. The critic also appreciated Sai Natraj's cinematography, and the songs composed by Bhavatharini.[1] Sidharth Varma from The Times of India wrote, "Tamil films with rural themes have helped several debutants make a mark, but sadly Vellachi does not work for comedian Pandu's son Pintu. For, the movie suffers from several inconsistencies in the script and pacing."[2]
