Production
The film marked the acting debut of dance choreographer Harikumar and actress Karthika in leading roles.[2][3][4][5][6][7] Karthika was cast in the film after the makers had spotted her in a commercial.[8] The relative success of the film prompted Karthika to be labelled as 'Thootukudi' Karthika or 'Karuvappaiya' Karthika by the media.[9][10] Harikumar and Karthika worked together again in Madurai Sambavam (2009).[11]
Music
Pravin Mani composed the songs and scored the background music.[1] The song "Karuvappaiya" from the song garnered popularity prior to release, with actress Karthika's display in the song noted.[12][13][14] Following the album, Pravin and Harikumar came together again for their next venture, Thirutham.[15]

Reception
Sify gave the film a negative review and wrote that "On the whole, the script is wafer thin, there is no logic and is too dark and morbid".[17][18] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online noted that "Though it's a predictable storyline, the director has attempted to bring in slight variations and the film does have its interesting moments and elements".[19] A critic from Cine South wrote that "'Thoothukudi' is a decent action thriller".[20]
The film performed well at the box office, with director Sanjay Ram receiving more offers to work on films.[21][22] The film's positive response prompted director Sanjay Ram to work on a sequel titled Kiliyanthattu Thoothukudi 2 during 2013.[23][24]
