I still can’t get this film out of my system. It’s been days, yet it plays somewhere in the back of my mind — scene after scene, frame after frame — refusing to fade. This wasn’t just a movie; it was an experience that reached straight into the soul. What Mari Selvaraj has crafted here is raw, unfiltered truth — cinema that breathes humanity in every detail. You can feel the heart of every single artist and technician behind it, their collective sincerity pulsing through the screen. Mari, as a filmmaker, has evolved into something extraordinary. There’s a quiet confidence in the way he handles complexity — his storytelling no longer feels like direction; it feels like orchestration. Portraying such a sensitive, historically rooted feud between two community leaders with this kind of grace and precision takes both empathy and vision. He neither exploits the story nor romanticizes it; he simply reveals it — layer by layer, truth by truth — until it becomes something you *feel* rather than just follow. Dhruv’s performance caught me off guard in the best way. I hadn’t seen him as an actor capable of such restraint and depth before. But here, he dissolves into the character. There’s vulnerability, fire, and silence — all coexisting within him. It’s rare to witness an actor find that balance between rawness and control. This film, for me, redefined who Dhruv is as a performer. Before I like him because he is Dhruv *Vikram* but now I'd say just Dhruv has got my respect for his impeccable talent. And then there’s Nivas K. Prasanna. His music doesn’t accompany the film; it *inhabits* it. Every note feels lived-in, almost like an echo of the characters’ inner worlds. The melodies are haunting yet tender — they carry the film’s emotion long after the visuals fade. I truly feel guilty for not recognizing his brilliance earlier. This soundtrack isn’t just something I listen to — it’s something I *feel*. I got to know only after watching the film, that Mari is the lyricist for every single song. Man what a talent. I can see how passionate he is with his words. Also Vedan and Arivu in Rekka rekka song, wow they blew my mind away.🔥 What stays with me most is how Mari Selvaraj transforms real events into something profoundly cinematic yet painfully real. He doesn’t aim to impress — he invites you to introspect. This film reminded me why I fell in love with cinema in the first place: because at its purest, it isn’t about spectacle or escapism. It’s about truth. About stories that speak to who we are — and who we’ve been too afraid to confront. Honestly, I want to go watch the film again. Once wasn't enough.

This is one of the finest film of recent times and one another legendary film from Dhanush after Asuran. Dhanush has shown his best level of acting and has very well earned credit for his double action in this film.. Being die hard fan of Dhanush, I found class, mass and perfection in each every scene of his acting. The bgm is absolutely a great score for the movie, I'm very sure that the fight sequence accompanied with the bgm would definitely have been a goosebump moment for every audience be it a fan or a neutral audience... The film has come out as a perfect cocktail of action, humour, sentiment and romance... People burst out laughing with the very well played hilarious scenes of the characters pattas and his friend puncture... fight sequence is a great support for the film and Dhanush has perfectly played the character. He has shown his maturity level in acting.. He was apt in both characters... be it pattas as a naughty boy or dhiraviyam perumal as a great martial art expert, my star has performed with great level of acting fulfilling the requirements of the character and maintaing the responsibility of the character.. In short, this film is definitely a blockbuster for Dhanush this year.
