Release and reception
The film had a theatrical release on 11 November 2023 across Tamil Nadu. A critic from Times of India noted that "feel-goodness overcomes formulaic writing in Kida" and that "despite the simplistic making, and at times formulaic writing, director Ra Venkat manages to keep us invested in the proceedings because the problems faced by his protagonists are relatable". A reviewer from The Hindu also gave the film a positive review. A critic from South First wrote "the film appeals to you for its truthfulness" and that "there are no pretensions, no exaggerations, and no artificiality".
