Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan is a movie that manages to keep the audience engaged throughout, striking a fine balance between commercial elements and a story built on a heavy, thought-provoking topic. It’s rare to see a film that successfully blends mass appeal with depth, but Vettaiyan pulls it off.
All the characters were well-utilized, with no one feeling like a mere ‘hi and bye.’ Each role added value to the narrative, keeping the film tight and impactful. This is a refreshing contrast to AR Murugadoss’s Darbar, proving that even a cop-themed movie can be both commercial and meaningful when executed with a proper storyline.
My take? It’s a solid 3.5/5. Definitely a must-watch in theaters. Go in with no expectations, and you’re bound to enjoy it even more!
