Naangal released in theatres on 18 April 2025 by S Subbiah of SSI Productions.[1]
Ashwin S of Cinema Express gave 4/5 stars and wrote “In this era where identity crises are rampant and parents are forced to be extremely careful regarding every decision they take with their children, Naangal takes a step back in time to the 90s, to show how even the most fundamental aspects like words and actions towards a child can impact their lives to a significant extent.”[4] Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India gave 3/5 stars and wrote “Naangal is undeniably a thoughtfully crafted film, anchored by a strong central performance and the natural, subtle work from the three young actors playing the sons, all contributing to its distinct mood. It offers an unflinching look at a difficult upbringing.”[5]
Gopinath Rajendran of The Hindu wrote “Naangal takes you on a trip down memory lane to your childhood days without assuring you that all of those memories would be pleasant. It is a profoundly personal work from a filmmaker who, with the title, tells the world that this is who they are without letting this chapter of life define them.”[6]
