Aadukalam

i was really impressed with the level of sophistication in the movie's plot. this is definitely among the better performances dhanush has given in his career, and he really captures the imagination of the audience. he really gels with his character, giving a realistic feel that stayed in my mind long enough to give this movie a review.

the integrated songs are also a welcome change from the typical cut and migrate to different country kind of songs that tamil viewers are so used to. and viewers will certainly enjoy the dance sequences:)

the masterful capture of emotions in the second part of the movie and the parallels drawn to rooster fighting are a treat to movie fans who expect more from their movie experience. all in all, a must see for all, for the casual entertainment seeker, or the serious movie buff.

very raw and stunning screenplay by the director..actors and technicians supports the mood of the film...climax of the movie is criticized among the people but other than that nothing would have shown the loyalty of K.P.karupu..editing of the movie is a big strength specially in the interval sequence. G.v.prakash does a good job.. fight sequence between dhanush and kishore conveys the rooster fight superbly and it is well conceived by the people ..the slang of madurai Tamil is worked without any flaws or artificial .. highlights of the movie are dhanush(k.p.karupu ) kishore , pettai karan and DOP, editing ,story line ,and the dialogues during the rooster fight makes the situation more real.

In the league of Devar Magan, Paruthiveeran yet another movie that portrays the life of people as it is in the reality. Aadukalam is a movie based on the life of rooster-fighters, their passion, love, emotions and everything.

After success of Polladhavan, Dhanush and Vetrimaaran have tagged again for this classical venture and have succeeded too, making it both commercial and critically acclaimed movie.

Plot: Pettaikaran and Rathnasamy are the rivals in the rooster fight. Karuppu, the jockey of Pettaikaran team, goes to win the best rooster award and a ransom price money in a tournament despite Pettaikaran denial to compete with his rooster. Rest of the movie depicts how situations go bad as people change after Karuppu gaining popularity.

Yet another brilliant acting from the lead, Dhanush and excellent acting from the support casts Jayabalan, Kishore, and Narien. Tapsee who does the love interest of Dhanush, has done a recent job as well.

Music is done by G.V Prakash Kumar has delivered exactly what it is supposed to.

Full credits to Vetrimaaran for this excellent direction and superlative screenplay.

No wonder that this movie has bagged six National awards including best actor, best director and best screenplay.

For those who are looking for an honest and a quality movie, I would highly recommend this.

Vetrimaaran is a Gem of Tamil Cinema .. This one is a cult classic film.. It reflects the life of Rural Madurai .. Their slang .. their lifestyle.. If you involve in the movie , you experience a beautiful lifestyle... Emotional... Pain last for days after watching movies

This was the masterpiece by the director vetrimaaran. It portrays how a sense of jealousy can turn a good man. Acting and the slang they speak was realistic.
