Release and reception [ edit ]

Indhu was released on 14 April 1994. [4] The Indian Express wrote "The film is hence dance oriented with the storyline given a go by". [5] R. P. R. of Kalki praised Prabhu Deva's dance and Sarathkumar's acting but panned Ashok Kumar's cinematography as out of focus and also panned the vulgar dialogues and lyrics. [6] The film's release in Malaysia was marred by heavy censorship, with several fight scenes omitted. [7]

It was reported that Pavithran was considering making a film titled Mookkuthi Kaasi featuring Sarathkumar's character from Indhu , and the project started in 1996. [8] However Sarathkumar was ousted from the project soon after and replaced by Bhaskar Raj, who had appeared in Nethaji . The film, which also featured Kushboo and Roja, was later shelved. [9]
