Alai Osai was given an A (restricted to adults) certificate by the censor board without any cuts,[5] and released on 14 January 1985.[6] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki wrote many of the artistes were wasted for 16 reels and felt Ilaiyaraaja had used tunes which could be considered worthless for other films. Jayamanmadhan concluded the review saying those who go to the beach and listen to the waves for three hours are wise.[7]
