Not the best out there but better than many commercial movies

Aishwarya Rajesh did fantastic work. It could have been a better movie. You can watch it once. It is a social message film.

This is what A Commercial Cinema Should Aim for

Aishwarya Rajesh shines in this movie, the first 15 minutes and last 5 minutes of the movie is so haunting that i had nightmares thinking about it, the visuals were so powerful, that the last frame never left my mind, it shows people and politicians of all different colours, not every character is either black and white but have grey areas in their personality, it shows the problem is systematic that everyone of us plays a part, this movie is a slow burner and it had its flaws but overall a strong movie, the cast and the director really done a great job, this is as close to reality a commercial movie can get, it doesn't show a solution to the problem like every other social message movie, it only showed a great amount of social evil in our society

Painful

I don't remember when last time I crying to watch a film. KPR made me crying. Awesome movie. Superb performance by Aishwarya Rajesh. The end was so painful. It shows us how disgusting our political system & they don't care at all for common people.

Only if it was an hour shorter it would have been a masterpiece

If this film was 2 hrs long, with less love scenes and accepting Aishwarya Rajesh as the main protagonist, it would have been another Aram(2017). Even though this film starts saying that it is based on a True story, we forget it 20 minutes into the film, because of the commercial elements and because of that it was hard to accept what happens later. Since this is a online streaming film you can choose to skip the scenes you think is unwanted. I loved the twist and turns which is unusual for an indian film. Hats off to the writer for selecting this story. Only if the writing was short and crisp, Kanavan Peyar Ranasingam would have been a masterpiece. I am still happy that this film was made and it makes me want more films in the Aishwarya Rajesh, Vijay Sedupathi combo. This film is hard-hitting and will leave you shaken. Definitely a great experience.

Good story , story plot can be better

The story is nice. The character artists acting is very good. But too much focus on Hero and heroine like every South Indian movie. Heropanti .

The emotions of death, pain , anger are well portrayed by every actor. But not just the wife has lost her husband , mother and father lost their only child also. Water crisis is well depicted to the root level. But there are lot of politics involved in an agitation as well. Love story is as usual.

Hero and heroine characters are without any flaws as usual. And the whole govt machinery is full of faults , as usual.

Commerical movie trying to take the side of common people.

Could have Directed Better

The movie 'Ka Pae Ranasingam' brings a topic that must be discussed. It should be appreciated as the struggle is real.

No comments on perfect acting.

One thing want to highlight is the scene changes. Though the movie is longer than 2 hours, no enough time had given to change the scenes smoothly - happens so suddenly, and it is disturbing.

Very disturbing yet great film!

Casting and sharp dialogue are an asset to the film. Ariyanachi's fight for justice does get tedious beyond a point and the melodrama overtakes earnestness at instances, but that's no excuse to miss it. Very disturbing yet great film! Please bear with the slow first half! The 2nd half saves for it!! A well-intentioned, impactful but long-drawn social drama.

Showed Another Perspective of lives & labourers

When i saw the movie duration is more than 2and half hrs, hesitated to watch the film. After watching the same,i came to know the depth of the film, and the ppl who are working as labourers in abroad. Clearly showed the another perspective of lives of the labourers and the family. Must Watch film, for the ppl who desire to work labourers in arab countries and how they are being treated over there It also portrays that what will happen to a common man if he is struggling in this kind of Scenario in our country,director has made the audiences to walk in aishwarya's shoes. And shows the international politics and weak govt policies and our judiciary system of our country in this regard.

Brave

A brave film made by virumandi. It really felt me lively in the situation. Ghibran made his contribution through music perfectly. Aishwarya made her asusual versatile acting. I loved the story flow and plots. I was in a flow till the climax travelling the characters in the screen. The climax twist made me out from a ordinary viewer to a emotional live men inside the flim. Hope it's one of the best director touch in the ending. Overall oru Nalla padam

Ariyanachi all the way

Its been a long time since I witnessed such a strong portrayal of a woman lead, performed beautifully by Aishwarya Rajesh. Its her narration, her story, her pain, her struggle, all the way! Though there are flaws in the characterisation of supporting roles, the intensity with which Ariyanachi was scripted, made me focus just on her. Eventhough Vijay Sethupathi is the Ranasingam, he became just a primer for the whole plot to weave around him, with Aishwarya Rajesh taking the lead! The screenplay offers the breathing space for us to understand, realise and sense the pain and suffering of Ariyanachi, through each and every step she takes. The intensity was handled quite well by Aishwarya Rajesh.. This will be one such character which will be remembered for a long long time.

Blame the Government!!

Though the plot is new, the execution is more (or) less same. From 1947, all movies made regarding Indian bureaucracy, only blame the red tapism and govt officials (or) an angry young man take over the system and overhauls it. This movie adopts the first approach, where the female protagonist runs errands to get the body of her deceased husband from UAE. The movie gets preachy sometimes throwing punches and criticizing the officials. The whole point of the movie is to what extent one has to go to get things done from officials which is seen in countless other movies too. The movie never shows how authorities and officials actually work. They are simply bound by the law and not to the emotional whims of the public. I would seriously like to see a movie where they show the rat race and about the uncertainty to become an IAS, IPS and how things can be tackled legally rather than criticizing these officials. Its a good watch for emotional folks and not for practical ones!!

Fantastic drama with some cinematic scenes

First of all a big negative for its run time. A totally clueless length for the actual story. The story line is actually simple but they dragged it with some "so called romance comedy scenes" which makes me to wonder why?. Though Vijay Sethupathi not starred in the so many scenes of the movie, Aishwarya Rajesh pulled off the other scenes with her best performances. But the film had its own illogical scenes as it reminded us that its just a cinema and not a reality drama. Thats was the only cons throughout the film. They should reduces some scenes for the gripping of the story. But at the end of the movie you will get emotional for the story. A good one time watch.

Stretched unnecessarily

The story didn't have anything to stretch it for 3 hours. If it had been shorter could have been a good watch but the movie was boring and overdramatic.

Nice movie but lengthy

It's a nice movie, first half n hour to forty five minutes was so good.. Then it was bit slow.. Editor could have edited some portions.. Other than that VJS was as usual (simply superb), Aishwarya rajesh deserve lots of awards. All the character selection n crew was amazing.. Including that PM Thatha.. Hats off to the director and the team behind their success

Good one

It really feels painful just by imaging the kinda pain/emotions that people in those real situations would've gone through. The profession of the male protagonist of predicting the rain with just his instincts might sound magical to many today's world but it is a fact that there are real people around us who're still capable of pulling this job that even today's heavy-duty machinery would find it difficult to pull it off The female protagonist has as usual done a fabulous job as the character in the film has demanded. The plot does move slowly and among a handful of govt servants, bringing in more & with some twists/turn might've made it much better, maybe but the twist, in the end, was a good one although it was expected.

Not a film but good that it is one...

Occurrences like what was shown in the movie may get in to the newspapers but not to the right papers which can actually have end results.

What is the issue? When can an issue be fixed? Who can fix it? Where lies the actual issue? Who can prevent the actual cause? Why is there no permanent solution despite understanding the actual cause?

No questions will ever have a response. Even if it does, it will not carry any sense nor will it serve the purpose.

Finally, you just need to accept the reality, that is, unfair, indigestible, frustrating and nothing but all in vain...

KA PE Ranasingam is not another entertainer but TRUTH AT ITS MOST BITTER FORM....

Nice movie with Bold Message

Aishwarya Rajesh steal the show.

The film's biggest strength is undoubtedly Aishwarya Rajesh's intense performance as the determined and innocent Ariyanachi. She is a perfect choice, and needless to say, the actress is in top form and does complete justice to the character.
