The music was composed by Deva. Release and reception 
Military was released on 28 February 2003. Malini Mannath of Chennai Online felt "the remake fails to live up to the original" and added "while remaking it, the makers seem to have lost out on the feel of the original. It’s like they’ve just borrowed the scenes and situations, and rushed through the whole scenario. The natural flow is missing, leading to jerky narration." Sify wrote the film "fails to live up to the original" and that Sathyaraj "fails to make an impression as the elder brother of five sisters". Visual Dasan of Kalki wrote despite being a sentimental plot about brother and sisters, it sustains the interest till the end due to new kind of scenes and natural humour and also praised the director keeping the flashback short but felt the only negative is antics of Vinu Chakravarthy and Ponnambalam and concluded the director deserves military salute for making a film which can be watched with families.
