Then Chennai

"Then Chennai" unfolds the story of a middle-class family's struggles in Chennai's less explored backdrop. The actors deliver good performances. Even though this is the director Ranga's debut movie, the unique style of story narration, his acting makes the movie engaging. The combination of action and family drama worked out in a great way. This movie shows the strength, passion, and family bonds and It moves at a good pace. Music directors background music is undoubtedly added strength. Editing is also good.

Excellent cinematography and color tone are remarkable strengths. This emotional drama is a must-see for families; I highly recommend it.

Movie was fantastic, Credits to entire team and your role very well executed I was enjoyed a lot, hero energy levels very high and introduction was awesome. Background music ultimate. Extraordinary role played for SK character, Antony and heroine did great with sarcastic roles mother role also very good and she did super timing

Security team very strongly designed fighting scenes all well executed. Hero holding the suspense the scenes behind the baby.

Heroine as best approach and designation for the role.

Song excellent and beautiful music. Introduction BGM so good

Overall best at first attempt.

Interesting fact is new team has come up with some experimental neat piece of artwork. The craft has both dark thriller moments and soft emotional drama! I like the combo, as in the tamil movie Kaithi.

But action and certain places of the run time, loose grips..

Otherwise completely engaging family oriented experimental thriller.

More than the Hero , Heroine,3 Villan characters actually elevates the film at various places of the movie.

Kudos to Ranga. His efforts seems amazing. But not sure if it because of the character of his humongous tasks is not letting him shine as a good actor yet.

But very evident as an ambitious Director & Producer .

Kudos to the entire team!

As movie begins, director's many nots remains unopened. Post interval all nots connected well and story concluded well. Screenplay is slow and that needs to be fastened. Expected more action sequences from hero but it was missing. No glamor and decent movie. If comedy injected it would be artificial and director avoided that much appreciated. A movie with most of the characters are new come out well. This movie shows inspite of covid inspite of many people couldn't run their daily life during lockdown few things went unstoppable is alcohol, Black money and IPL. Director showed the same. It's a wake up call to all. Family First is the msg I got from movie... Keep going Ranga and team... Worth watching once in cinemas...

Well suited cast selection and they did their justice to the assigned roles. Gripping storyline, Slow burning crime thriller with family emotions and story spans across covid lockdowns. Background music elevates the movie sequences well. Trio responsibilities, ie movie direction, production and main lead role are executed by the same person Ranga. Quality of making and colour grading tones the movie is extraordinary. I feel Still somemore improvements required in editing the sequence in the last 30 minutes of the first one hour portion. Overall nice package and I felt worth spending two hours to watch.
