ProductionEdit
After hearing the script for the film, actor Justin Vijay opted to produce the film himself. Justin Vijay had previously worked as a video jockey, and had featured in minor roles in films including Kanchana (2011) and Madras (2014). The team requested the release of the title Striker from Doss Ramasamy, who had previously directed Dora (2017). At the film's audio launch, director Perarasu notably made a plea for the government to bring back Tamil titles for films.[2]

The film was released on 8 September 2023 across theatres in Tamil Nadu. A critic from Dina Thanthi gave the film a positive review, praising the twist in the climax.[3] A reviewer from Maalai Malar, in contrast, gave the film a negative review, noting it is to be watched "at your own risk".[4]
