Release and reception


Deivapiravi was released on 13 April 1960.[6] The Indian Express praised the performances of the lead actors.[7]


Remakes


Before AVM remade Deivapiravi in Hindi as Bindya in the same year, Ganesan advised them not to remake the film as he felt it would not come well. However AVM ignored him and went on to make the film in Hindi. Bindya was a failure and many years later, Saravanan expressed regret for ignoring Ganesan's advice.[8] The film was later remade in Sinhala as Sekaya in 1965.[9]
