Vanna Kanavugal is the feature film debut of Anand. [7] The dialogues were written by Vairamuthu. [8]
Vanna Kanavugal was released on 9 July 1987. [9] The Indian Express wrote, "Dreams glitter, but reality is forbidding. This truism blossoms in contrasty colours in Vanna Kanavugal" [...] Karthik has shown that he can play the tough guy too". [10] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki appreciated the lack of songs, the dialogues and outdoor photography, but felt many unnecessary characters were abundant. [11] Though Ameerjan was sceptical about the film's commercial viability, given its lack of songs, the film was a success and ran for over 100 days in theatres. [2]
