Mahaan tells the story of a simple school teacher, Gandhi Mahaan (played by Vikram), who leads a boring and regular life. He is frustrated as he has just turned 40 and has not done anything which excites him. He wants to break away from the shackles and lead an adventures life. His life turns topsy-turvy when his wife and son abandons him which gives him a chance to live the way he wants. He soon partners with his childhood friend and become a liquor baron only to meet his son later, who has turned into a police officer and vows to bring down his father's empire at any cost.
Directed by Karthik Subbaraj (Pizza), Mahaan is like a bottle of wine which you will enjoy with each and every sip as you will get involved in the film with diverse characters that entertains you right to the core
With his god-like performance, style and attitude, Vikram makes Mahaan a must watch film.

This movie is the best of Vikram in the last decade. The plot takes father son - 'criminal and cop' story after Dhruv shares the screen. Kudos to KS for making it an emotional turmoil for Vikram's character rather than the physical changeover he has done in his last few films. Do watch!!
Excellent writing and execution. Great work by director. Vikram asusual a great performance and now his son did a good job. Person living for his ideologies and principles and a person without ideology, principles both are extremists.

One of the best movies I have seen off late, everything from screenplay, acting to directing is spot on, the story written with so many details and subplots played out incredibly well. Kudos to vikram to pull off the role with such attitude.

- Alternate versionsIn Singapore, the film received an NC16 classification for a scene of drug use but later passed with an PG13 classification after the scene of drug use was edited. These cut involved a scene where a man talks about a drug-laced substance with his friend, piquing the latter's interest. The friend is later shown consuming the substance in the form of a paste dissolved in milk, and deriving a kick from it.
