Release and reception


Band Master was released on 2 July 1993.[2] Malini Mannath of The Indian Express praised the performances of Sarathkumar, Heera and Chinni Jayanth.[3]


Controversy


In 2022, Lakshmi Priya, writing for The News Minute, criticised one scene where Ranjitha's character ill treats two dwarf characters by asking them to sniff food because "a sniff would be enough for their size" as insensitive, and a bad example of dwarfs being used for comic effect in Indian cinema.[4]
