Kushi released on 19 May 2000 and was commercially successful. The film's Telugu version, also titled Kushi (2001), was initially planned as a bilingual along with the Tamil version, but released a year later due to production delays.[3][4][5] The film was remade in Hindi as Khushi (2003), and in Kannada as Eno Onthara (2010).
