Mudhalvan

Every south Indian chills about shankar's film. Though this film seems to be novel work but lacks some basics regarding politics. Always shankar takes lot of attention on photography. He might have studied something about the current political strategies.

Music is by A.R. Rahman. We can't criticize about his talent. Manisha koyirala doesn't suit very well in this film.

The director has to show what really politics is?? Simply showing how one can do crazy things in a single day is ridiculous. Of course every one in the country has a vision to make their country corrupt free.

Only music and photography part of the film is commendable. Rest of the things are crazy and simply ridiculous. Last but not least I am very much impressed by Raghuvaran's action.

If I had'nt seen this movie before seeing the same director's Indian/Hindustani which had released 3 years earlier, I may not have been so very impressed. While Mudhalvan represents an excellent movie by itself, the director had already produced a movie which was simply much bigger and better, earlier, which thus takes expectations a bit higher.

One of the subjects handled in Mudhalvan, namely caste-based politics and vote banks, is very important. If it were'nt for the running time, I think that the same subject should have been explored further. I also did'nt appreciate Arjun in the movie, reducing the caste nos to 4, instead of eliminating caste based reservation in totality? I guess caste based politics have a hand even in movies. See some vijaykanth movies if you want more on that subject.

This movie is without a shadow of a doubt, Arjun's best performance in his career. While it may not be Shankar's best, it is again without doubt, one of Shankar's better movies and a must watch.

Needless to say this is one of shankar's magnum opus back in the days at the dawn of the millenium. a thought provoking innovative storyline that deserves lot of praise and credit. The technical values production and music by AR Rahman are simply one of the best. down south.

One of the highlights is the sharp 35mm cinematography by KV anand at its finest follows a creative ad style nuance with quick cuts and zoom in effects. The story screenplay follows continuously throughout the film keeping u at the edge of the seat. AR Rahman's music needs no mention here as again the maestro has given us his finest tunes.The real star of the film was veteran Raghuvaran who played the corrupt politician role in a perfect manner. All the other subcasts did justice to their roles. Anyone will be truly amazed by the ending climax scene and what it meant to the protagonists.A truly trendsetter movie.

The movie has its usual cinematic moments. But, the message comes from the heartfelt anguish. The happenings in the country currently attest to this fact and instead of just pointing out the problems, this attempts to point out some of the solutions as well. Very commendable.

The movie was excellent. Songs and BGM in the movie were also fantastic. One of the best movie of Arjun and Shankar. The movie was very interesting. The movie was not at all boring. Everybody acted very well in the movie mainly Raghuvaran.
