Release and Technical Team

Released on December 27, Thiru Manickam received mixed reviews. The CE review noted, "With overly convenient writing, a predictable narrative, and excessive melodrama, Thiru Manickam attempts to captivate audiences with its theme of righteousness but falls short." Produced by GP Ravi Kumar, Chinta Gopala Krishna Reddy, and Raja Senthil under the GPRK Cinemas banner, the technical team includes cinematographer Sukumar M, editor Guna, and music composer Vishal Chandrashekar. The film was shot in scenic locations like Kumuli, Thekkady, and Munnar.
