Release and reception Thabalkaran Thangai was released on 13 March 1970. The following day, The Indian Express wrote, "While the picture is certainly recommendable for the absence of vulgarity and the assertion of a sense of values, it is however tedious. It lacks the finesse of K. S. Gopalakrishnan. Technically it is poor. There is hardly any movements of the camera. The story-telling is so much like in his previous movies that KSG has fallen a prey to his technique."
