Release and reception

Tubelight was released on 2 June 2017.[1] Sify said, "Director Indra shines with his comic writing that he makes us smile at constant intervals but as a film, Tubelight is just an average watch only because of the predictable second half and climax."[6] M. Suganth of The Times of India said, "What is frustrating about Tubelight is how its debutant director, Indra (who is also the composer of the film), fails to take his concept and turn into a cohesive film."[1]
