The Hindustan Times review of the film read, "Suriya has outdone himself in this film, as he does in all his films. Whether it is the action or the comedy, the Kollywood star excels, and the scenes between him and Pooja are very sincere and authentic. For Pooja Hegde, the role of Rukku is one of the best in her career, and she has really aced it. The emotional moments are real, and one can empathise with her. Malayalam actor Joju George displays his talent once again in the role of Thilakan, while the actor who essays Michael has done a fine job too. Prakash Raj appears in a cameo, as does music director Santosh Narayan."
As per Sacnilk.com, Retro earned ₹60.26 crore nett in India, whereas the gross collection is ₹ 70.97 crore. The film minted ₹96.97 crore gross worldwide. Directed by Karthik Subbaraj, the film also stars Pooja Hegde in the lead role along with Suryia. Retro is one of the highest-grossing films of Suriya's career.
Apart from the lead actors, the film also stars Jayaram, Joju George, Karunakaran, Nassar, and Prakash Raj in prominent roles. Shriya Saran made a special cameo in the movie. Retro marks the collaboration of Karthik and Suriya for the first time.

He stepped in right after this turning point, which makes the journey different and challenging. Speaking with Hindustan Times, the actor said, 'There's no formula anymore, like first do action then a rom-com.

But as an artist, that gives me the freedom that I'm just going to pick things that I believe in. I think my generation of actors will be like the herald of this change and I'm excited about it. I'm excited to see what my peers do and what kind of scripts come to me. Hopefully, there is a change for the better."
