Release


The filmmakers were made aware of a plea at the Madras High Court regarding the change of film title during early April 2019. The plea suggested to not to use the term Rocky in the film title as another completed Tamil film which is on the frontline to have its theatrical release also possess the same name. The filmmakers initially announced the film title as Rocky before commencing principal photography, and then after the conclusion of the filmmaking, the director renamed the title as Rocky The Hero for a temporal reason. However, the teaser of the film revealed the title as Rocky The Revenge.




Reception


The film released to negative reviews.
A critic from The Times of India opined that "The story is what 80s staple revenge dramas are made of and could have worked in today’s time had a little more attention been paid to the narration". A critic from the Deccan Chronicle noted that "Had the director concentrated on a tauter screenplay keeping the present scenario in mind, the film would have been more palatable".
