The film was titled Petta Rap which carries the tagline Sing, Action, Dance Repeat. The film's title is inspired by a song from Prabhu Deva's 1994 film Kadhalan, in which the music was composed by A.

Reception


Narayani M of Cinema Express rated the film 1.5/5 stars and wrote "Just like how Bala crashes into a random wedding after drinking like a fish, Petta Rap too takes illogical detours that bring no value to the story."
Thinkal Menon of Times of India rated 2/5 stars and wrote "Petta Rap leaves you wondering how its makers depended only on Prabhu Deva's dance and reference to Kadhalan to pull off a mediocre story and unengaging screenplay."
