Release
The film garnered attention after the release of Sethu (1999), where Abitha played a leading role and was dubbed in Tamil as Deva. Her glamorous role in Devadasi subsequently lost the actress film offers.[2]
Regarding the Tamil version, K. N. Vijiyan of New Straits Times wrote that "The second half is more interesting but is not enough to justify the price of the ticket. Perhaps the film is meant for those who are curious about Abitha's past efforts".[3]
