Uriyadi

As a regular movie goer, I've come to look at Tamil movies as a source of entertainment and minimal intellectual resource. I was literally shocked to the core when I watched Uriyadi for the first time, after I noticed some glowing reviews on it. It literally rewrote my understanding of Tamil cinema.

I've seen many people compare Vijay Kumar's style to Tarantino's and I might quite agree. Add to it the authenticity and rootedness that seem to dominate and seep through the screen! Where was this master creator all along?

Violence? There's plenty of it. It's violence galore! Does it offend you? Don't let it! It's just a reflection of reality, which can be harsh when directly dealt with and portrayed on screen.

Alcoholism? Smoking? It's nothing that's not representative of the "liberated" student community of India, specifically Tamil Nadu. Vijay Kumar is not preaching. He is just showing the norm in colleges and what's the probable outcome meted out to such students.

What makes a man sell his property to indulge in his passion? What makes him gamble on the goodness of people by bringing to light the ugliness of caste based politics? Take a bow, Vijay Kumar!

A bold film that's not lacking in violence, politics or friendship. It's everything a youngster needs to watch and learn from! A masterpiece in 90 minutes!

I rather not compare Uriyadi to the western cult movies but it seems there is no better way of expressing the pure joy of watching this movie. Good movies like this show bravery of the cast and their willingness to go to any extent to get their message across. Just like classics such as Anbe Sivam that made Thamizh people all over the world proud of their industry, Uriyadi joins that mile high club. This movie has a lasting effect on you. I thought movies such as this without songs and marketing would be avoided by general audience, but I was wrong to some extent...most of the youth have watched this movie and connect with the pain and effort the makers have gone through. Its sad to see the interviews with Uriyadi makers who seem to lost all hope. But don't worry, the people stand behind you and please don't give up. Do continue to make good movies. We don't want a talent such as yours lost. You could try crowd funding your next project like they did for Lucia(Kannada) to ease the stress on the financial part and I guarantee you that we would do all that we can to support you.
