Ghilli

If you have seen the Telugu version of Gilli "Okkadu" you will find this to be very similar in story line, but Gilli has different songs and takes place in Tamil Nadu not Andra pradesh. Although this is a remake of "Okkadu" you will find that Vijay and Trisha make this a unique film, Vijay and Trisha make a great pair. A few negatives were when Vijays character slaps Trishas character for going to buy a present for him, he never apologizes and she still stays with him in the end. Good action and songs make this an all around great movie I recommend it.

I give it a 10/10, one of the best I have seen.

Am an ardent Vijay fan. I have never seen another movie of his which is as good as this.

It has all the regular clichés that one can expect from a commercial entertainer. A hero who is bad in studies but a star in his forte i.e.Kabbadi. His friends to fill in the comedy quota. A heroine in a life-and-death situation. A villain, which I say is the best ever portrayed by the protagonist. High octane chase and action sequences. Music that can make one dance. And above all that a perfect storyline to keep all the above factors within an enjoyable circle. Perfect.

The director doesn't give any chance for the audience to loosen up. He just goes on from one nail on the head to the next. And one can see the lighter side of Vijay in this film which he rarely executes.

All said.....This movie was and will be perfect for many years to come....

Thoroughly enjoyed the film alot Each and every scenes gives u an goosebump Worth to watch ❤😍🔥🔥

17/04/2004, a golden day for the whole of cinema industry. Ghilli is the best among the other best movies vijay has ever acted. There are innumerable hits and blockbuster vijay has given but this will be the best among that, this is remake of okkadu the telugu movie but if you watch both the movies, ghilli outshines okkadu, Dharani has tweaked the screenplay, added different scenes here in ghilli which is some n times betrer than okkadu, okkadu is also a very good film but ghilli has outperformed it, all the actors and Trisha has done an award winning show and this movie gives you many nostalgic moments and that romantic track in the last 45 minutes will make this movie an evergreen movie, if there is a baasha for rajini, then here is ghilli for Thalapathy Vijay. Perfect must watch movie. The only negative aspect of this movie is that there is some over the top action stunt in the first fight of the movie but other fights are very realistic and awesome when compared to some lame fight sequences in okkadu.

The word Ghilli actually means a small sharp wooden game instrument that is used in a game called ghilli-danda (a precursor to Cricket) in India. The use of the word as nickname for the principal character is stylish, as it signifies one who is sharp, fast and can hurt badly when rubbed in the wrong way.

Ghilli is one of the best movies for Vijay and in it is unrivaled in its pace and action. The movie never slacks for a moment, and keep you always with some exciting action. The movie is set in Madurai and Chennai and its story core is simple. A rich landlord tries to covet a beautiful girl in his town, and his unquestionable power and authority, prevents the girl from seeking a justice. The hero tries to rescue her and the majority of this movie portrays the week in which all this action happens.

A very exciting movie and though the story is nothing new, the director and the actors receive praise for the full-paced action.
