Raangi

Scripted by A.r.Murugadoss is a fresh take on a unique story line with his assistant M.saravanan handling few thought provoking dialogue portion and direction... The movie struggles to elevate initially due to slow paced narration... 2nd half holds the grip with fine moments...breaking the usual cliche of terrorist formula and especially the climax portion have been shot well technically brilliant... Sakthivels' camera captures the plains of Tunisia and keeping the soul of movie lively... Trisha does a neat job,though Aalim character has no scope for performance he (Bekzod Abdul malikov) does a worthy performance... Overall a slow paced first half needs ur temper to enjoy a new story line that elevates in the later part.

This is a global or international film that incorporates a South Indian flavor.

The promotional material may mislead viewers to expect an action-packed thriller, which is not the case.

The story contains interesting elements, but the screenplay has few issues.

The treatment of the film could have been more subtle and realistic.

The direction does not align well with the story's vision.

Trisha's character is poorly written, yet it possesses strength and offers a new experience for her as an actress. Her performance is Fantastic, Her natural look, without heavy makeup, suits the role while retaining her gorgeous appearance.

The locations are stunning, and the cinematography is fantastic.

The music complements the mood of the scenes effectively.

The editing could have been improved, but the fast-paced screenplay ensures a lack of lags throughout.

I recommend watching it on an OTT platform.

This lad in Aalim's role is a breath of fresh air. His emotions are effortlessly real. Storyline could have been better without the needless Macho-Trisha part. Bekzod Abdul Malikov has a true potential to shine in Indian cinema. Mollywood, have you signed him yet...

Simplifying the turmoil gripping a country like Libya could have been avoided. Perils of exposing social media to teens and the issue that the movie started with could have also been handled in a sensitive manner. There is difference between mistake and crime. What the other girl did was cyber crime and this movie even trivialised that!

My score is for Bekzod, not the movie.

Raangi starts off with a good note of introducing Trisha as a bold woman journalist. The one line of the film is absolutely amazing. But, everything else that happens afterwards are cringeworthy and should not be considered as a model to be followed. Impersonating a teenager, putting a teenager at risk of getting victimized by social network cybercriminals, taking a teenager to places of danger without letting her know the exact reason, asking a teenage girl to strip naked without letting her know the reason are some of the things I am shocked to see in this movie. Such directors should be banned and stopped from making anymore movies.

Also, the film does not know its core message, is it about Teenager problems, supporting Zealots, or justifying romancing with kids. At last when the lead character cries, we can only laugh.

Cant believe what i saw just now. Wasted 2 n half hours if my precious life. Trisha was mediocre to say the least n no aunt of any niece will behave so irresponsibly. Poor little niece made the scapegoat of the whole movie. A terrorist from Libya has the time for love that too a girl from India?(i'm still scratching my head). At no point in time is the movie engaging. A lot of unnecessary scenes. Why they waste time money n resources on such bad stories is still a mystery. No connection between any scene from the beginning. In one word "CRAP".

All the positive reviews are from amateurs or probably kids. Watch it at ur own risk.
