Taramani

I am a fan of "Ram" and his creations and had loved Katradhu Tamizh despite it's disturbing content. But I rate "Taramani" the best that he has created by far. Would have loved it if he had kept off the voice overs. Showcased the performer in Andrea Jeremiah. And as usual Azhagan perumal shines in his role. Kudos to Vasanth Ravi; for a debut he has shouldered a very challenging role and has done quiet well, but has a long way to burnish the actor in him.

Very moved by how well the movie touched upon a wide array of social & environmental issues.

Looking forward to Ram's next gift..

It's an excellent movie and direction. Hats off and good work done by all technicians in that movie

I watched Taramani on independence day. I went to the movie thinking about the director Ram only. But the movie was excellent. Every actor deserves credit. The background score, songs are really good.

Even though it is an adults only film, I think u can watch with your family. It moves u very much.

The movie depicts casual relation between two strangers in the best possible screenplay.

The spots were intelligently placed. At the beginning of the movie, there is a shot of two parts of the city; one very poor & the other is the corporate world. The Taramani station is at the center, separating both these two worlds. It's interesting that when the first meet, they meet at the station because Ram apparently wants to tell us that these two worlds meet. The progression of the story is sort of a class difference. The story took various unexpected turns, but the flow of the movie wasn't steady, but more random.

"Feminism" is seasoned all over the movie. Every man in the movie is dumb, unfaithful, & terrible. That's how men are portrayed in the entire movie, which is basically man hating & therefore, a feministic movie! Since smoking & drinking is a virtuous thing for a society, Ram fights for women by telling us how the society is terribly guilty of not giving this virtuous privilege to women..

Anti-capitalist message is all over the movie again. At the beginning of the movie, there's a shot where the hammer & sickle flag is flying high. When Andrea is fired in the movie, somehow Ram thought it was very important to whine about how great labor unions are & how the capitalist system mistreats workers & that's obviously not true.
