Aarilirindhu Aruvathu Varai

One of the rare films in which Rajini plays a simple guy who remains just that, without becoming Superman. A well-told middle-class tale, it has excellent performances by Rajini and Cho, and comes with plenty of heart-tugging scenes. Ilayaraja scores a winner again, with a magnificent song in Kanmaniye kaadhal enbathu. Definitely worth watching once.

One of the best movies which showcased the acting side of RajiniKanth.

This is genuinely one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The story was bad. The characters were bad. There was not a single moment of this boring, depressing movie that I enjoyed watching. It's only redeeming feature was Rajinikanth's amazing acting - as usual, he gives it his all and turns in a great performance. Other than that, this movie has nothing to redeem it. Viewing this movie was one of the most painful, excruciating movie-watching experiences I've ever had. I understand that the movie is not meant to happy or fun. That's fine. I've watched somber and serious movies before that I liked. But with characters this cartoonishly unlikeable and with a story that seemed to celebrate and relish the suffering of the protagonist, there was quite literally nothing in this movie for me to enjoy. I would like to encourage everyone, even die hard Rajini fans, to avoid this movie. If you want to see great dramatic acting from Rajini, there are plenty of other movies that give you that along with a story that won't make you question the life decisions you made that lead you to watch this film.

You will probably come to know why he is called the Superstar and why South Indians value him so much after watching this movie. People who crack those Rajinikanth jokes, you guys must watch this movie. Acting, Direction everything is 100%. Best Tamil movie of all times. A must-watch this epic movie.
